The mural shown on the cover of this book, painted by Sieger Kder, illustrates the lifelong commitment of Antoine Frdric Ozanam to serving the needs of those in poverty.1 Kder attempted to depict Ozanams awareness that the Catholic Church of his day had failed to protect or secure the rights and dignity of the poor and marginalized. The dark windows of Pariss Notre Dame Cathedral in the painting evoke this failure. Lacking the support of the Church, many desperate people had turned away from religion and found refuge in ideologies such as socialism. At the center of the painting, in a busy street among poor and working-class citizens of Paris, is Ozanam, speaking from his Sorbonne podium. The collegiate motto of the Sorbonne is emblazoned on the podium: vivere socialiter, et collegialiter, et moraliter, et scholariter (to live as a member of society, a colleague, a moral being, and a scholar).
Ozanam believed that the Gospels contained the true principles of liberty, equality, and fraternity that had been promised in the French Revolution. In both his teachings and his writings he called on the Catholic Church to embrace the worker classa class often thought of as a new wave of barbarians in civilized society. Although Ozanam stands behind his podium in Kders mural, his hands and body extend outward in solidarity with those in need. He put his words into practice. In the background of the mural is Christ, filled with compassion for those who suffer. Father Kders painting captures Ozanam and his times and offers some insight into the reasons why Ozanam founded the Society of St. Vincent de Paul.
I remember the first time I heard of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul. I was a teenager who had just lost his grandfather. To me, he was simply ppre, a wonderful French Canadian patriarch whose family was the most important thing in his life. As the family greeted the numerous guests who attended his wake, it quickly became apparent that many of them had been helped by the Society, and especially by my ppre, who had been a member most of his life. The stories that I heard about him and the Society intrigued me, and when I was invited some years later to an information night about the Society, I attended. At that meeting I first heard the name of Antoine Frdric Ozanam, the principal founder of the Society. As a young university professor, I was inspired by the example of Ozanam. I was drawn to him as a moth to a flame. From that moment, it was as if he and I became friends. It has been a friendship developed over more than twenty-five years. Although Ozanam would be the first to admit his weaknesses, he was determined to overcome them. His overriding desire was to anticipate and to help fulfill the will of God in his life. Ozanam understood that the road to sanctification is one that is neither straight nor smooth. But it is a road worth traveling if one wishes to lead a better life. For Ozanam, to live better and to do a little good was not only an aspiration but a vision for a better world.
