The founding day of the Secular of OMMI in Vietnam can be seen as the day the OMMI was born and present in Vietnam and is specially
celebrated every 5 years.
This is an opportunity to express joy in offering words of gratitude and appreciation for the great happiness that God has loved and blessed,
created according to His eternal plan, while also remembering Father Louis-Marie Parent, an O.M.I. priest, who collaborated with God's intention
to realize a desire for the initial presence of OMMI in Canada in 1952... and subsequently in other countries.
With gratitude towards Father Parent and the pioneering oblates, we would like to record here the journeys and beloved faces along with the
generous hearts of those who contributed to the establishment of the OMMI Group in Vietnam.
