Throughout history, and in each Vincentian institution or group, the Vincentian Family has given a privileged place to Mary. The Constitutions of the Daughters of Charity express it in this way: “Whoever seeks to follow Jesus Christ will also encounter her who received him from the Father, Mary the first Christian…” St. Louise wrote: “In carrying out our actions, let us cast our eyes on those of the Blessed Virgin, and think that the greatest honor we could give her is to imitate her virtues.” For a selection of resources (downloadable presentations, videos, podcasts, etc.) about Mary, click here.
