In the Company of Charity
In the Company of Charity is a podcast that invites listeners into meaningful conversations about the Catholic Church, society, and service to others, all through the lens of the spirit we've received from St. Vincent de Paul, the saint of charity. Hosted by the Daughters of Charity, each episode offers thought-provoking dialogue with nonprofit leaders, spiritual thinkers, and those working on the front lines of charity and advocacy. We explore how the spirit of service can inspire real-world action and personal transformation. Whether you're seeking spiritual enrichment or a deeper understanding of charitable work, you'll find companionship and insight here.

Serving in Santa Barbara with Collaboration, Love, and Acceptance
Sister Rocio Briones, DC, has only been out of Seminary (novitiate) for six months, but she's already making an impact in Santa Barbara. Sister Rocio dove in headfirst at her first mission, working at the Father Virgil Cordano Center where they serve the homeless population, as well as on the St. Vincent Campus, where she has been working on an inter-generational program for the seniors and children to get to interact. On this podcast, we hear about all of these programs and ministries, their history, and how Sister Rocio fits into their stories.
