OnJune16,1737 canonisedVincentde nametothelistofsa gavehimtotheworld Godhasseentoitthat certainmen,womenand evenchildren-someseeminglyordinarypeople,fathersandmothersoffamilies, singlemenandwomenlivingintheworld,aswellas bishops,priestsandreligious-havebecomenoted fortheirvirtue.

Howeverwehavetoknow thoselivesfirst,toknow somethingofthetimesthey livedin,andtheirdifficulties,ifwearetoappreciate theirexampleevenina smalldegree.

Whatlessonsarewe meanttolearnfromthelife ofSt.VincentdePaul, whosefeastwecelebrated onJuly19?Aquickview ofhislifewillanswerthat question.

So,attheageof28,we findthehumble,unknown countrypriestinthemetropolis.Noone,wecanbe sure,hadanyideaofwhat animpacthewastohave onthelifeofthatcity,and onthewholeofFrance.

ST.ILDEPHONSUS'COLLEGE,NEWNORCIA

Duringhisstayatthe Oratory,doubtlessfrom talkswiththesaintlymembersoftheinstitute,his soul,wearetold,wasfilled withsadnessatthethought oftheimmoralityinwhichthepoorerclasseswereimmersed,especially the Frenchpeasantry.

Areallongingtorescue themfromtheirmoraldegradationandignorance seizedhim.Butwhatcould hedoaboutit?Inhis humilityhebecameconvincedofhisinabilityto undertakethetask.Allthe same,hislongingshaunted him,andfrequentrecourse toGodinprayerwasthe result.

ButGodwasbutbiding histimeandwishedtolead St.Vincentgradually,step bystep,tohisgreatworks. Hewishedtogivehimexperienceinthelivesofthe poor,andtolethimseefor himselftheirdreadfulstate.

HencewefindSt.Vincent going,inobediencetoPere deBerulle,asparishpriest ofClichy,in1612.Herehe wasathomewithhispoor, andeminentlyhappy.

ChaplainToGreat

Buttherewerefarworse placesthanClichy,andhe mustbemovedontowards hisgoal.Hecouldnotunderstandthisnewdesignof God,forhewassentas tutortothefamilyof EmmanuelDeGondi,the Admiralofthegalleys.

Butifhehadonlyknown! MadameDeGondi,anexemplarywoman,was anxious,notonlyforher ownsoulandthoseofher husbandandchildren,but deeplyinterestedinthe spiritualwelfareofalllivingonthevastlandsofthe DeGondifamily.

SeeinginSt.Vincentone withsimilarinterests,she encouragedhimtodowhat hecouldwhentheytravelledthroughtheirestates. Hesawtheignoranceofthe people.Hesawtheirlackof opportunity,andthesmall numberofprieststryingto lookafterfartoomany.He realisedthesepoorpriests themselveshadlittletrainingfortheirsacredduties.

Theyearsspentinthis waywiththeDeGondis werecertainlynotwasted. Indeed,theyledtotheestablishmentofthemissions forthepoorneglectedcountrypeople,andasamission

In1625,then,St.Vincent, aidedbythegenerosityof MadameDeGondi,founded hisCongregationofPriests oftheMissiontogivemissionstothepoorandeventuallytomantheseminaries hewastoestablish.

Butwemustgobacka little.St.Vincentwasnot preparedforallGodwantedofhim,when,inJuly, 1617,hefledfromthehouse oftheDeGondisandpersuadedPeredeBerulleto lethimworkforthepoor andneglectedalone.

ChatillonChanged

Heobtainedforhimthe parishofChatilloninthe dioceseofLyons.Anyone whosawthepicture,"MonsieurVincent,"whichwas showninAustraliaafew yearsago,willneverforgetthesceneofhisarrival atChatillon.Howwithhis fewpoorbelongingsover hisshoulder,amidtheinsultsandevenattacksofthe inhabitants,hefoundhis waytothedilapidated church.

Yetwithinfourmonths hehadcompletelytransformedtheplace.Godsent him,ofcourse,forthesouls ofthoseneglectedpeople,butitwastheretoothatHe firstlethimrealisehisabilitytoorganisenecessaryreliefforboththeirsoulsand bodies.

Therehefoundedthefirst AssociationofCharity;the "Charity"ashecalledit. Chatillonwashisfinalpreparation.

St.VincenttookupresidenceinParisin1625,and therehemadehishomeuntilhisdeathin1660.But hetravelledwithhisearly missionariesincountrydistricts,givingmissionsand

viceofGod,everywhereestablishingoneofhis"Charities."

St.VincentdePaul wasoflittleuseunlessthereurgingalltoabetterserweregoodparishprieststo continueitswork,St.Vincentlaterturnedhisattentiontoseminariesforthe trainingofpriests.The CouncilofTrenthadorderedthem,but,uptothistime, Francehadnone,anda priestdidhisstudiesinuniversities,whiletherewas reallynospiritualtraining forhim.

Inacoupleofyearsthere were30ofthesescattered throughthecountry.Once, passingthroughMaconand seeingthemultitudeofbeggars,theirconduct,their ignoranceofthetruthsof Faithandindifferenceto religiousobligations,he brokehisjourney,studied thesituationanddrewupa schemeofreformwhichhe submittedtothelocalauthorities.Theyrecognisedin itanunheard-ofwisdom andadopteditunanimously. Hisfamespreadfarand wide.

Buthesawsomethinghad tobedoneforParisitself. Itspoorwere,ifpossible,in aworsestatethanthoseof thecountry.Theirutter misery,theirignorance,the stateofthehospitals,the unwantedinfantslefttodie ondoor-stepsandinalleyways,allthesecouldnot failtodrawoursaint.
