Founder's Week 2008 - Vincentian Convocation, Queens Campus

January 31, 2008 8:00 PM
St. Thomas More Church, Queens Campus

As we celebrate Founder’s Week 2008, we look to deepen our understanding of the Vincentian mission of St. John’s. This year we celebrate the unity of humankind and our interdependence in the world. During the week, we seek to examine our responsibility to love - “extending our hearts and minds to nurture our own and the other’s good.”
