A MISSION TO READ, MOVIES & ART

Vincentian Mission to Read asked the Eastern Province Vincentians, Daughters of Charity, and lay associates, to suggest books that they felt reflect the Vincentian charism, mission, and tradition, and to tell us why and how. We didn’t restrict these recommendations to religious or spiritual films, but rather to any film in any genre that projects a Vincentian approach to life, faith, humanity, and community.

Every few weeks, Vincentian Mission to Read will feature a new recommendation, with a short write-up about why he or she chose the the book.

With the weather getting cooler and the days getting shorter, people are spending more time inside, discovering (or rediscovering) some great movies. With the advent of streaming services, never before have so many films been available to us in our homes whenever we want to watch.

In keeping with the times, Vincentian Mission in Movies asked the Eastern Province Vincentians, Daughters of Charity, and lay associates, to suggest movies that they felt reflect the Vincentian charism, mission, and tradition, and to tell us why and how. We didn’t restrict these recommendations to religious or spiritual films, but rather to any film in any genre that projects a Vincentian approach to life, faith, humanity, and community.

Every few weeks for the next few months, Vincentian Mission in Movies will feature a new recommendation, with a short write-up about why he or she chose the film.
