In the Company of Yazmine Cajuste

January 3, 2023

Happy 2023! As we enter into this new year, we take the time to reflect on the timelessness of the Vincentian Charism. It's a charism of charity, selflessness, and inclusion. During today's episode, Yazmine Cajuste, a very involved member of the Vincentian Family, chats with Sister Liz Sjoberg, DC, about how she began learning about the charism, what parts stand out the most to her, and how she remains involved.

S7 E1: How One Small Town Transformed into a Community

September 27, 2024

Happy Feast of St. Vincent de Paul! If you've been a listener for awhile, you know that means it's time for the new season to begin! Welcome to season SEVEN! To kick off the season, we have Sister Theresa Sullivan, DC. Sister Theresa is the Director of Daybreak, a ministry of Depaul USA, that operates as a day resource center for those experiencing homelessness in the area. Sister Theresa is the third director of Daybreak and our very own Sister Elizabeth Greim, DC, just so happens to have been the first. Between the two of them, we hear all about the founding of Daybreak and just how much it's grown since it's founding in 2011. Between adding new buildings and gaining the support of the whole community, it's clear there's been a lot of love poured into this ministry!
