What meaning does this have for MISEVI today as we prepare for an Extraordinary Assembly in Bogota, Colombia in April of this year? How are we called to “leave God for God?”

At this time we are readying ourselves to take part in the GREAT VINCENTIAN MISSION OF BAJO CAUCA AND LA MOJANA SUCREÑA whose theme will be: “Baptized in the Spirit to participate in building the Reign of God.”

To celebrate the 140 years of services rendered by the Society of St. Vincent de Paul (SSVP) in the City of Medellin (Colombia), a “National Vincentian Meeting” was held from September 23 to 25.
The moral and Christian formation of its members and, in light of the Gospel, service on behalf of the poor, especially the elderly is the FUNDAMENTAL BASE of the foundation.

We, the members of Misevi Colombia, are people of different ways of being.
“Aguapaneleros of the Night, Lay Vincentians,” a branch of the Vincentian Family, was awarded the Order of Democracy Simón Bolívar by the Chamber of Congressional Representatives of the Republic of Colombia.

At this time of great need and social distancing, many people extend their hands to provide necessary relief to those people who are suffering and in pain.
I want to share with you the mission that the Daughters of Charity have undertaken in the Province of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal (Bogotá-Venezuela) during this worldwide pandemic/quarantine.
Last October, MISEVI Colombia met in Funza Cundinamarca at the Villa Paul Seminary, with the purpose of carrying out its VI National Assembly.
In Cali there is a large presence of the Vincentian Family. The conditions of extreme poverty of much of the population are alarming.
