This Saturday, January 25, we celebrate the anniversary of the Foundation of the Congregation of the Mission by St. Vincent de Paul. In the USA, the Congregation is made up of the provinces of New England, the East, and the West, with over 250 priests and brothers. They also serve in missions they founded in Panama and Kenya.

Click on the image below to see some brief videos– six newly-ordained or soon-to-be-ordained Vincentians talk about their vocations and the joy that they look forward to finding, in serving people who are living in poverty.

And below: see how the mission that was set in motion by St. Vincent over 400 years ago continues today in the United States provinces and missions.
