Did you know that for Saint Vincent de Paul, the Jubilee was not just a celebration, but a decisive moment of grace and spiritual renewal? The Decalogue of the Vincentian Jubilee, written by Father Tomaž Mavrič, CM, was born precisely from this insight: to rediscover the profound value of the Jubilee as a favourable time for conversion, reconciliation and the renewal of mission. Through the wisdom of Scripture, the writings of St Vincent and the relevance of his charism today, this book guides us to re-read our identity in the light of God’s mercy and the Gospel’s urgent call to serve the poor. It is a precious opportunity to renew our “yes” to the Gospel of charity today.

Following the death of Pope Francis, the Superior General of the Congregation of the Mission, Fr. Tomaž Mavrič, C.M., shares a message of gratitude and reflection. The Pope, who inspired the Vincentian Family with his example of faith, humility, and service, continues to guide us through his legacy. An invitation to follow his vision of a Church that is open and close to the most vulnerable.

On the Lenten journey, Fr Tomaž Mavrič, CM, invites us to reflect on resilience and inner transformation through the inspiring experience of the Andes survivors. As St Vincent de Paul cultivated the five Vincentian virtues – simplicity, humility, meekness, mortification and apostolic zeal – we too are called to make our spiritual garden bloom, transforming trials into opportunities for growth. A profound message that guides us towards Easter with renewed faith and Vincentian spirit.
