Santuario de San Vicente De Paul: Shrine of the Poor

Managed by the Congregation of the Mission, the Santuario de San Vicente de Paul is situated on Tandang Sora Avenue in Quezon City. Built in 1955 as a chapel, it was elevated to parish status in 1975. The church has been recognized by the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) as a shrine because of the relic of Saint Vincent de Paul residing in this place since 2005. Saint Vincent de Paul is the patron saint of charity and is known for his work with the poor and marginalized. The church also houses the tomb of Don Diego de la Viña, the philanthropist who donated the land for the church.

In the Spotlight: The Feast of San Vicente de Paul is celebrated yearly on September 27.
