On 1883, Frederic Ozanam, 20 years of age and a student of Law at the
Sorbonne University in France was challenged by an Agnostic student who
said to Frederic: |
|
| |
“You people put all the burden for the poor upon your religious orders- then wash your
hands of the job! Don’t try to impress us with what the priests and nuns are doing for the poor. Tell us Frederic Ozanam, what are you doing for them-
you and your fellow Catholics in this room." |

Welcome to the YaYa Ministries! page. Our founder, Frederic Ozanam, was
challenged to live out his faith, to put it into action. Today, the Society
of St. Vincent de Paul challenges all youth and young adults to do the same,
to put their faith into action, to live our the Gospel message, to serve those
in need, to love and praise God in all they do.
Explore! We have several service programs to meet the needs of youth and
young adults who are called to serve while meeting the needs of those the
Society helps.
Pray! God is calling you to love and serve Him. How will you respond?
Act! Call the Volunteer Coordinator for more information and to sign up.
We look forward to serving with you!
