St. Vincent de Paul Parish
Welcome
Welcome to St. Vincent de Paul Parish which serves the Lincoln Park neighborhood. When first established, our Church was on the fringe of the city, but for more than 125 years both Chicago and our parish have grown tremendously.
In the spirit of St. Vincent welcome all to our Parish family. For more information, please visit our Welcome & Worship.
Rev. Christopher Robinson, C.M. – Pastor
