Congregation of the Mission
The Congregation of the mission was
founded by St. Vincent De Paul in France. His zeal for the poor reached a
new level through undertaking of the foreign missions when in 1648 he sent
the first confreres to the Island of Madagascar, and later on to Rome,
Poland and so on. The "Little Company" founded in 1625, 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. In
July 1963, just before the General Assembly of that year the Generalate was
shifted from Paris to Rome during the tenure of Very Rev. William Slattery
the then Superior General, while the mother house remained in Paris. It was
to get away from the influence of the French government and to becomless
French and more international. In the year 1922 Vincentian Spanish
Missionaries came to India and started their services in Orissa. The Indian
congregation was bifurcated into two major congregations as North Indian
Province and South Indian Province during the year 1997. The head quarters
of South Indian Province is MYSORE, Karnataka.
DE PAUL INTERNATIONAL RESIDENTIAL SCHOOL,
is founded by Vincentian Father's to provide ample space for their
inquisitive minds and soaring enthusiasm to bloom forth in the healthy
atmosphere of DE PAUL, opening up fresh venues they would rise to
spectacular heights and shine. Vincentians known for their inventive skills
and innovative acumen, have made milestone achievements in the field of
education. The world renowned St. John's
