Welcome to St. Vincent’s Home
Founded in 1881 by Fr. Luigi Piccinelli, St. Vincent’s Home, Maggona, stands as one of Sri Lanka’s oldest Catholic institutions. It has been diligently managed by the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate since 1884.
What began as an orphanage quickly grew to incorporate an industrial school and a juvenile reformatory. Today, we are a multi-faceted center dedicated to the Oblate Charism of “evangelizing the poor and the most abandoned.” Our service now extends across generations, supporting children, youth, as well as the elderly.
Our Core Ministries
“Our mission extends across generations. We are dedicated to providing a loving home for children, empowering youth with skills for the future, offering dignified care for the elderly, and nourishing the spiritual lives of all who come to us.”
