Francis Sullivan,OMI, the current National Director of the Victorious Missionaries has a personal mission for the new millennium. He wants all our faith communities to know about the message of hope that the V.M.'s have been to persons with disabilities since its creation. He is especially interested in seeing a V.M. Circle of Prayer started wherever Christian people gather. These Circles of Prayer are opportunities to share prayer intentions with all those in need of God's healing presence in their lives. Costs must never be the controlling consideration limiting the welcome offered to those among us with disabilities, since provision of access to religious functions is a pastoral duty.
Inclusion is an important question today for all people of faith.
Persons with disabilities are concerned that all ministry sites be open and accessible to all who come to worship. Brother Sullivan says that the Victorious Missionaries is a spiritual resource center headquartered at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows, sharing the healing and the hope with all people we minister to. He invites anyone who might be interested in the Victorious Missionaries or would just like more information to contact him at the Shrine.
