St. Vincent de Paul Parish

Welcome to
St. Vincent de Paul Parish

St. Vincent de Paul Parish in Niagara‑on‑the‑Lake is a Catholic community rooted in nearly 200 years of worship, service, and welcome. Founded in 1826 and centered in our historic 1830s church, we continue to be a place where tradition and renewal meet. Today our parish is active and growing, celebrating the Eucharist, serving those in need, and welcoming parishioners, newcomers, seasonal workers, and visitors alike. As we mark our bicentennial in 2026, we give thanks for those who built and sustained this community and look forward with hope to the generations still to come. more

To request for a Mass to be celebrated for a living or deceased loved one, particularly if a Mass card is needed, please visit us in person during normal parish office hours. An offering of $10 is suggested for each Mass intention. You may choose to leave the date of the Mass open or select a specific date.

NOTE: To ensure availability for specific dates, such as birthdays or anniversaries, it is advisable to submit requests several months in advance. This helps to avoid disappointment and is dependent on the availability of a priest.

    Consider joining the Pre-authorized Giving Plan, which lets you set up automatic withdrawals for your Sunday contributions according to your preferences. Many parishioners are already part of this convenient plan.
