Join us for a special keynote address, Neighborly Love: Nurturing the Vincentian Spirit, by Marge McGinley.

Marge McGinley has been a member and Spiritual Advisor for the Society of St. Vincent de Paul for 27 years. She has served as a professional hospital chaplain for as many years, while leading parish formation programs for men, women and children coming into the Catholic faith. Deeply-rooted in Vincentian values, Marge’s decades of experience with St. Vincent de Paul in the Diocese of Trenton, New Jersey includes work as District President, Diocesan President, Regional Spiritual Advisor, Diocesan Chairperson of Spirituality, Formation and Leadership Development and as National Chairperson of the Formation Committee.

Marge holds a certificate in Ministry to the Bereaved from the Archdiocese of New York and a Certificate in Parish Administration from the Diocese of Trenton.  Her Clinical Pastoral Education (Chaplaincy Training) was accomplished at Cooper Medical Center in Camden, NJ.  Her B.A. of Human Services further complements her ability to recognize the social issues and family dynamics in every setting. Marge has been recognized as an Outstanding Woman of the Year in Social Service for her work with the marginalized population of her community.

Marge is mother to four adult children and five grandchildren, and recently celebrated 46 years of marriage.  She exudes joy and spirituality in every encounter with neighbors and Vincentians and is thrilled to present the keynote address in our “Love Your Neighbor. Live Vincentian” Spring to Life event.
