New edition of The Mind & Heart of a Vincentian.
Available Now! New Edition of The Mind & Heart of a Vincentian
David Williams' much-loved book, "The Mind & Heart of a Vincentian," has been a cherished guide for Society members worldwide ever since its first publication in 2001. After being out of print for some time, it is now available in a gently revised edition. David's dedication to Vincentian service began as a 16-year-old in Arnold, Nottingham, and continued for over 60 years, during which time he occupied numerous roles in the Society including Vice-President of the International Council General. The new edition reflects the belief of Frédéric Ozanam and his companions that spiritual development is crucial to the Society's mission. Before he passed away in March 2020, David had expressed a desire to revise the book for republication. With gratitude to David's family for their support, this edition incorporates extensive updates, including insights on environmental stewardship.
The book is available for purchase in the membership shop: https://stvincentsshops.com/collections/svp-merch-and-resources .
