On 10 December 2009, Fr. Francesco Todisco, General Consultor and Rector of the Church of San Salvatore in Onda celebrated his 70th birthday. Fr. Franco has been rendering his valuable service in the Generalate community for more than ten years. During the community Mass he thanked God for the Pallottine vocation and the testimony of two important saints in his life, namely, St. Francis of Assisi and St. Vincent Pallotti. Continuing the feast, the community along with family members of Fr. Franco gathered together in the refectory for the festive meal and to express the gratitude. On behalf of all present, the Rector General underlined Fr. Franco’s extraordinary dedicated service to the Society, to the Italian Province and currently to the Generalate community. Fr. Franco, in the opinion of Fr. General, is one of the best experts on the life and writings of our Founder, St. Vincent. We wish him all the blessings of the Lord for a joyful and fruitful life also in the future.
