On Tuesday, January 16, the meeting of the Executive Committee of the Vincentian Family began.

The meeting is taking place in Philadelphia (United States) at the headquarters of the Vincentian Family Office, located on the grounds of St. Vincent Seminary in Germantown.

The Executive Committee of the Vincentian Family (VFEC) meets every year. It is formed by a central group of four branches and a rotating group of three. The central group contains the three branches founded by St. Vincent de Paul and St. Louise de Marillac: the AIC, the Congregation of the Mission and the Daughters of Charity; as well as the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul and three rotating branches of the rest of the Family.

We hope to be able to offer more information soon. Until then, these are the first images we have received of the meeting:
