Our class saint is St Vincent de Paul who was born in France in 1581 and spent his life preaching missions to and providing relief to the poor. He established hospitals, he founded the Congregation of Priests of the Mission and the Sisters of Charity. He died in 1660 and was canonized by Pope Clement XII in 1737. His feast day is celebrated on 27th September.
