Ozanam Orientation will be held on Saturday, March 21, 2026 from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at Historic St. Joseph Parish Center. Continental breakfast and lunch will be provided. Ozanam Orientation is the “basic training” of the Society. All new Vincentians are required by the Rule of the Society to attend Orientation within six months of joining. Established Vincentians may attend Orientation in order to satisfy their three year refresher training. During Orientation, we cover the history and spirituality of the Society and the wider Vincentian movement, examine the Rule, introduce you to home visits and systemic change, plus a lot more. You must attend the full training.
Historic St. Joseph offers confessions at 4:00 p.m. and Mass at 5:00 p.m. if you are interested in attending following orientation.
