Saint Vincent’s recently held its 14th Annual Mission Awards Celebration in recognition of four employees who have made a significant contribution to children, youth and families in their various roles within Saint Vincent’s. The four recipients, Jennifer Crossley, Kristen Dutra, Mary Gilligan, and Marguerite Steele were nominated by their peers for this once-in-a-lifetime achievement award. Mercy Sister and Saint Vincent’s Board Member, Catherine Donovan, RSM provided a reading. Most Reverend George W. Coleman, Bishop of the Diocese of Fall River, gave the Greeting for the celebration and, together with Saint Vincent’s Executive Director Jack Weldon presented the awards.
