International Vincentian Youth Meeting 2023

This year's Vincentian Youth Meeting will be held July 29 through August 1 in Lisbon, Portugal, just a few days before the World Youth Day. This year's theme is: “I am neither from here nor from there, but from wherever God wants me to be,” which St. Vincent de Paul said to the Daughters of Charity in 1634.
