Luncheon Programs

Bereavement Program
If you’ve lost a loved one, you are not alone. Join us for a lunchtime program on Wednesdays from 1 - 2 p.m.

Come alone or bring a friend...all are welcome. Come as you are...whether you want to talk or just listen…

You don’t have to deal with your grief alone.

Lenten Lunchtime Chats
Give yourself a moment to pause during your workday to gather in a small faith sharing group. Watch a 10-15 minute dvd on a selected Lenten theme while you eat your lunch with friends and then...

Imagine...reflect...share if you wish...

Join us for one week or every week.

Vincentian Mission Certificate Program
This 16-month program is centered on three major components: Education, Service and Reflection. A serious commitment to attending training sessions, monthly Vincentian reflections, a capstone retreat, and, most notably, 50 hours of community service – two thirds of which will be in direct service with the poor – comprise the core of the program. Upon completion, Mission Leaders will be honored with a certificate of service reflecting the significance of their achievement.

This experience will allow our staff, faculty, and administrators not only to provide better service to our students, but to become role models who will perpetuate St. Vincent’s legacy, inspiring others to action. In the words of St. Vincent: “Our vocation is to go not into one parish, nor into only one diocese, but throughout the earth.”

Pondering Paul
During this Spring Semester, three new talks on Paul will be offered. Fr. Patrick J. Griffin, CM, the Executive Vice President for Mission and Branch Campuses, will again present these lectures. The talks are intended to further engage with this fascinating missionary and apostle.  One can easily see in him someone with whom St. Vincent would be very much at home. Come, spend some time with Paul, a man whose words and influence have thrived for over 2000 years.
