350TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION
|
 |
Let us celebrate this year the 350th anniversary of the death of St. Vincent and St. Louise. - Sunday, September 27, 2009From September 27, 2009 –to September 27, 2010 the Vincentian Family will celebrate the anniversaries of the death and resurrection of our founders Saint Vincent de Paul and Saint Louise de Marillac. The theme of the Jubilee Year is “Charity and Mission” because our mission, to evangelize and serve the poor, is motivated as always by God’s love which we translate into hands-on charity, direct contact with and love of the poor. We are celebrating our past, giving thanks to God for the wonderful examples of love that he has given us through Saint Vincent and Saint Louise. They were involved in a mission of love. They were bonded by love: a deep love of God and a deep love of the poor. They carried out their mission with a passion which was so deep that it continues to be felt and lived in the Vincentian Family throughout the world, certainly in ways far beyond what Vincent, Louise would have imagined. We encourage all Conferences and Councils to actively participate in the 350th Anniversary celebration of the Vincentian Family. The link shown below will get you to the FAMVIN website from which you can download the monthly reflections, in English or Spanish. Members of the Vincentian Family all over the world are using these reflections for prayer, reflection and shared dialogue. read more ...
