Reflection

On Tuesday the Church remembered Blessed Frederic Ozanam. He was born in France in 1813, became a husband and a father, and lived a life of true mercy and charity. Throughout his life, his simple hope was to "become better-to do a little good."

Frederic Ozanam was the principal founder of the Saint Vincent de Paul Society, a society that continues his work of Christian charity. Today there are thousands of St Vincent de Paul societies in 131 countries. Ozanam died at the age of 40 in 1853. He was declared "Blessed" by Pope John Paul II on the 22nd August 1997.
