Congregation of the Mission (CM)
The Congregation of the
Mission was founded by St. Vincent De Paul in France in the year 1625. This "Little Company", thrived to a great
spiritual edifice in course of time and today the Congregation of the
Mission has about 4,000 members in 46 Provinces and 5 Vice-Provinces
scattered over 84 countries. In
July 1963, just before the General Assembly of that year the Generalate was
shifted from Paris to Rome. It was
to get away from the influence of the French government and to become less
French and more international. In the year 1922 Vincentian Spanish
Missionaries came to India and started their services in Orissa. The Indian
province was bifurcated into two major provinces as North Indian
Province and South Indian Province during the year 1997. The head quarters
of South Indian Province is at MYSORE, Karnataka.
Vincentians known for their inventive skills
and innovative acumen, have made milestone achievements in the field of
education. The world renowned St. John's
University, New York; De Paul University, Chicago; Niagara University,
Philadelphia; Adamson University, Manila; St. Vincent's HS School, Chennai;
De Paul School, Vishakapatnam; De Paul School, Berhampur are, a
few sister concerns of the Vincentian Fraternity. |
