Bread and Soup Banquet
Vincentians from the Mobile-Baldwin area gathered to observe Ozanam Sunday with the annual Bread and Soup Banquet. The banquet features a simple meal of soup, bread, and water to express solidarity with individuals in our community who face food insecurity and struggle to provide sufficient nourishment for their families daily.
Ozanam Sunday is celebrated on the last Sunday in April each year by the Society of St. Vincent de Paul. This day commemorates the founding of the Society on April 23, 1833, as well as the birth of Frédéric Ozanam on the same date. It serves as a reminder of the Society's commitment to charitable work and the spirit of friendship among its members.
