To the Heights with Mini Vinnies

Living Mission, Jubilee and Beyond

This is the To the Heights logo

Inspired by Pope Francis’s call for a Church that reaches out in mission, and Pope Leo XIV’s reminder that "love is the basis of every mission", this year-long SVP theme encourages children and young people, and the wider community, to live out their faith through love in action.

Rooted in the example of the newly canonised Saint Pier Giorgio Frassati- a young Vincentian known for his love of the poor and his motto Verso l’Alto ("To the Heights")- this theme invites us to strive for growth: spiritually, socially, and through service.

Don't forget that our SVP Jubilee 'Doors of Hope' resources are still accessible here for the remainder of this special year.

Who was St Pier Giorgio Frassati?

To celebrate the canonisation of Pier Giorgio Frassati, the ‘Man of the Beatitudes’ and devoted Vincentian, this resource will inspire children and young people with his joyful faith and servant leadership.
