DePaul
University creates a number of new media resources related to
Vincentian Heritage, including documentaries, podcasts, interviews,
recorded lectures, digital stories, and a searchable database of popular
quotes from Vincent de Paul and Louise de Marillac.
In 2010 to celebrate the 350th anniversaries of the deaths of Saint
Vincent de Paul (September 27, 1660) and Saint Louise de Marillac (March
15, 1660) the Vincentian Studies Institute of DePaul University
undertook the project of creating the first full length-documentary
about Saint Vincent and Saint Louise. “Vincent de Paul: Charity’s
Saint,” is the impressive result of these efforts. It is available for
purcahse as a DVD or to stream for free through our site. The
documentary is available in three languages, in the original English, or
dubbed in Spanish and French
One of the strengths of the university is our dedication to exploring
the intellectual underpinnings of our mission and values. To this end,
the Division of Mission and Ministry sponsors a series of lecture programs
in which we invite a wide variety of noted experts to share the
research, questions, conclusions and insights of their research to an
academic community which seeks to engage the great questions of our time
from DePaul's distinctive institutional perspective.
The Vincentian Heritage Podcast is a selection of readings on Vincentian history, spirituality and praxis to help sustain the members of the Vincentian family in our shared efforts to live out the mission, vision and values of St. Vincent de Paul.
