Victorious Missionaries

Logo: Victorious Missionaries: The National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows
  • The Victorious Missionaries are people dedicated to providing spiritual support for all those with disabilities or who are chronically ill, and those who wish to journey with them. They are a diverse group – comprised of laity and religious, women and men, the young and not so young.


     
  • There are currently six VM chapters in the U.S.: Belleville, IL/Buffalo, NY/Erie, PA/Flint, MI/Granite City, IL/San Antonio, TX. Members meet monthly for Days of Renewal, have social gatherings and engage in social outreach projects.


     
  • The VM National Office is located at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows in Belleville, IL. It offers two events each year, and publishes a complimentary quarterly VM newsletter called The Uplift. People can join the VMs by contacting Bette at the National Office at 618-394-6281 or via email: bette.meyer@snows.org


     
  •  For those who don’t live near a VM chapter, connections are maintained through emails/phone calls/cards, attending the VM National Conference or Fall Retreat, as well as via the newsletter, the VM Facebook page (Facebook.com/VictoriousMissionaries) and the VM Personal Prayer Ministry.
