As a true Vincentian missionary, he understood that the Vincentian charism demanded going where no one else wanted to go. Thus, he devoted his days to the most marginalized in society: people with severe disabilities, sick children, orphans, and communities completely forgotten by the world.
His love did not remain in words; it was urgent and deeply practical. This concrete charity led him to roll up his sleeves and establish multiple centers of care, ensuring that he was always on the front lines during the most critical moments that struck the island, never retreating in the face of epidemics or natural disasters that threatened his flock.
Today, the reputation for holiness of Father Vincent continues to spread, not only among those who had the grace to know him, but also among new generations who see in his story a clear sign of Christian hope. Moved by this, the Church has begun to take the first firm steps toward opening his cause for beatification, gathering testimonies of a life that made the face of Christ visible and close.
His legacy reminds us today that love of neighbour does not belong to the past: it remains alive wherever someone serves those at the end of the line.
