VFEC Meeting 2017
Most of the Vincentians around the world have heard about the Vincentian Family Office which is located in Philadelphia, USA. Perhaps few of you know one other member of the team who works for the Vincentian Family in this Office.
Since the office is serving the Vincentians, we want to share a short biography of the team. We hope, sharing our stories will make it easier for you to contact us with your valuable information. Together we can make collaborative ministry a hallmark of Vincentian Family ministry for and with those we serve.
We hope you will enjoy learning who we are, where we came from, and our ministries before serving at the Office.
