MINI VINNIES social action group

faith in action
At St Finian’s, our Mini Vinnies (MV) group embodies the spirit of faith in action, following the example of St Vincent de Paul, to care for those in need and to bring hope into the lives of others. Made up of enthusiastic pupils from KS2, the group meets regularly to pray, plan, and work initiatives supporting local, national or global needs. From organising food bank collections and fundraising for CAFOD, to creating Christmas cards for residents in care homes and leading liturgies focused on compassion and justice, our Mini Vinnies show that even small hands can make a big difference. Guided by Gospel values and Catholic Social Teaching, they remind us all what it means to live with kindness, dignity, and purpose.
