Fr. Paul Gins, O.S.M., will be visiting St. Clement and St. James the weekend of July 19-20 to share about the important missionary work of the Servite Order in Zululand, South Africa. Founded in Florence, Italy, in 1233, the Servite Order came to the United States in 1870. In 1948, Servites from Chicago began ministering in the Vicariate of Ingwavuma in Zululand.
