Held twice monthly, conference meetings affirm the importance of the spiritual and social dimensions of Vincentians as they come together as a community of faith, love, prayer and action. After scriptural readings, prayer, and business items, Vincentians report on their home visits and, if necessary, ask advice about how to best serve our neighbors. Because conference members come from various walks of life and available resources change frequently, these discussions can often bring out new ideas to solve a neighbor's needs. The meeting ends with prayer for those we serve and the special intentions of our members.
