In our parish of São Raimundo in Codò, Brazil, we are building a community centre called Elizabeth Sanna and a chapel dedicated to St. Vincent Pallotti. In a special meeting of City Council of Codò, and after a petition from the residents, it was unanimously decided that this new area be called after "St. Vincent Pallotti". One of the reasons for this development stems from the desire to thank the Pallottine family for the pastoral work carried out in this area for over twenty years. As we begin the 50th anniversary of the canonization of our founder, this is a great gift we can ask for. This is a good step to make St. Vincent Pallotti best known, where his ideals of the Universal Apostolate can be effectively implemented.
