  • The Company of the Daughters of Charity of Saint Vincent de Paul, sometimes simply referred to as Daughters of Charity, is a Society of Apostolic Life for women within the Catholic Church. Its members take simple, private, annual vows. It was founded in 1633 and devoted to serving Jesus Christ in persons who are poor through corporal and spiritual works of mercy. The full title of the congregation is the Daughters of Charity (the people of Paris used this term for the sisters), Servants of the Sick Poor. The term "of St. Vincent de Paul" was added to distinguish them from other communities called 'Sisters of Charity', animated with a similar spirit, founded after the French Revolution, and modelled on the rule which Vincent de Paul and Louise de Marillac gave their own sisters. Sometimes they have been popularly known in France as "the Grey Sisters" from the colour of their traditional religious habit, which was originally grey, then bluish grey. The Vincentian Family Tree (Vincentian Studies Institute: DePaul University, 1996) presents an overview of related communities from a genealogical perspective.
