Good news for the Company and for consecrated life

24/06/2025

We are pleased to share that Sister Françoise Petit, Superioress General of the Company of the Daughters of Charity of Saint Vincent de Paul, has been appointed by Pope Leo XIV as a member of the Dicastery for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life.
(Official announcement: Vatican Bulletin – 24 June 2025)

This appointment is a recognition of Sister Françoise’s service, experience, and witness in consecrated and missionary life. Being part of this Dicastery means collaborating directly with the Holy See in discerning, accompanying, and guiding religious congregations and apostolic societies throughout the world.

As a Company, we are deeply grateful and united with her in prayer. May the Holy Spirit guide her in this new mission at the service of the Church and Consecrated Life.
