Malo Lei Lei!
This week for RE we have been given tasks about St Vincent De Paul. Did you know that Vincent was captured by Pirates?
He was on a boat back home because he had recently been on his way to sell some property that he had recieved. He was captured by 2 pirates while travelling, they took him to Tunis in Northen Africa. He was a slave for 2 years because he was sold into slavery. During those 2 years he would pray to God saying that if he was freed he would spend the rest of his life devoting his life to to the service of the poor.
This is a picture of the house that St Vincent was born in:
