After more than 40 years devoted to the preparation of the English edition of the correspondence, conferences, and documents pertaining to Saint Vincent de Paul, Volume 14, the cumulative Index, marks the culmination of the entire series. Yesterday the long-awaited copies of Volume 14 arrived at the offices of the Vincentian Translation Project.
