Built near Saint Jeanne-Antide Thouret’s birthplace in Sancey, France, this Romanesque-Celtic basilica unites pilgrimage, architecture, and Vincentian memory. Its stone nave, stained glass, marble altar, and annual gatherings recall a woman formed by the Daughters of Charity who carried Saint Vincent de Paul’s spirit of service from France to Italy. It remains a living shrine of prayer and charity.

Founded in 1963 to serve a rapidly growing Catholic population, Saint Louise de Marillac Parish moved from improvised worship spaces to a nationally recognized church consecrated in 1973. Its modern architecture and active community life give visible form to the Vincentian values associated with its patroness: faith, practical charity, formation, and service.

The National Basilica of Our Lady of Luján is one of Latin America’s great pilgrimage churches and a landmark of French-inspired Neo-Gothic architecture. Its Vincentian identity is inseparable from Father Jorge María Salvaire, C.M., whose missionary faith, scholarship, and determination transformed a historic Marian shrine into Argentina’s monumental national sanctuary.

The Cathedral of Saint Vincent de Paul in Tôlagnaro stands where the first Lazarist missionaries sent by Saint Vincent reached Madagascar in 1648. Inaugurated in 1969, its modern architecture, diocesan role, and living Vincentian presence make it both a memorial to missionary courage and a continuing center of faith and service for the communities of Anosy and Androy.
