Province of North India

VINCENTIAN SPIRITUALITY Seminars

From mid-November to mid-December 2024 Sister Maria Robb and Sister Maureen Tinkler spent time with our Sisters in the Province of North India. They had been invited by Sr Teresa Parakel DC, Provincial, to lead five "4-day Seminars" involving over two hundred Sisters to cover topics which included: Our Charism, our Founders, our Pioneer Sisters, our Spirit and Vocation, an overview of our Constitutions & Statutes, Commitment and Vows. It was a wonderful experience being with our Sisters in another province. We come from different parts of the world with different cultures and languages and yet, we share the same vocation: To give ourselves to God in community life for the service of those living in poverty.  Whilst in North India we were based in Berhampur and Kharagpur, but we also had the opportunity to visit some of the people served by our Sisters in nurseries, schools, parishes, clinics, homes for the elderly, homes for people with disabilities and a home for men who are destitute.

Inauguration of Fr Eugene Curran C.M. as Provincial Director

By Rita Quinn • October 6, 2025
Sister Theresa Tighe D.C. (Provincial) welcomed Fr Eugene - "It is with deep joy and heartfelt gratitude that we welcome Fr Eugene, our Vincentian brother, as Provincial Director of our province of Blessed Rosalie Rendu." Theresa went on to say that Eugene's previous ministries have shaped him into a compassionate listener, a thoughtful guide, and a faithful companion on our journey of discernment. As we prepare for our upcoming assemblies under the theme 'Artisans of hope and peace,' Fr Eugene's presence is a sign of God's providence. His accompaniment will help us shape a future that is faithful to our charism and responsive to the needs of those we serve - our own sisters, the poor, the forgotten and all whose lives touch ours in any way. In his homily, Fr Eugene emphasised the notion of accompaniment, walking with people as they discover for themselves the freedom that is theirs as beloved children of God. It is up to us to do what God asks of us in good times and not so good times. He emphasized that we are not in control but God is in control and his grace and mercy extends to all of us.
