FAMVIN

Le but de cette page est le Service des Pauvres par excellence. Avec cet objectif essentiel, je souhaite que la page puisse être un instrument de communication commode permettant d’échanger les informations de notre vie et les travaux des différents continents; d’apporter des éléments à la formation de nos membres; de rassembler les énergies pour nos projets communs; de donner la possibilité à la voix des pauvres d’être entendue d’une manière claire et sans retard. (Vincentiana 2000 – 2)

famvinlogoFAMVIN.ORG is a series of websites in various languages and is intended to serve as a portal to information relating to the world wide Vincentian Family. It is sponsored by the Congregation of the Mission as a means of fostering communication among the more than 2 million followers of Vincent and Louise.

More specifically it serves as a daily newspaper of the Vincentian Family, a repository of historical and current documents (Vincentian Encyclopedia) and place where people can exchange ideas on ministry in the Vincentian tradition as well as learn of new techniques and trends in the use of media in their ministry. It has recently added a section specializing in formation materials. (Not all these sections are availabe in other languges.)

FAMVIN.ORG has been developed as a response to th 1998 General Assembly of the COngregation of the Mission’s call to utilize New Means of Communication. Final Document. Commitment n°5 Freund, J. (VT-1999-03-10-ENG-FREUND.DOC)
