Mientras la Congregación de la Misión celebra su 400 aniversario, este artículo reflexiona sobre la vitalidad perdurable del carisma vicenciano a través de los artículos C.1 y C.2 de sus Constituciones. Estos textos fundamentales articulan una identidad misionera arraigada en el seguimiento de Cristo, el Evangelizador de los Pobres, a través de la santidad de vida, la evangelización —especialmente de los más abandonados— y la formación del clero y los laicos. Integrando los fundamentos bíblicos, la tradición vicenciana y las enseñanzas magisteriales contemporáneas, el estudio presenta el carisma como algo dinámico y no estático: fiel a sus orígenes, pero sensible a los signos de los tiempos. Se presta especial atención a «revestirse del espíritu de Cristo» como una santidad encarnada formada en el Corazón de Cristo, y a evangelizar a los pobres como un encuentro sacramental con Cristo presente en la humanidad herida. El artículo sostiene que la misión vicenciana hoy exige una conversión interior renovada, una misericordia profética y una creatividad misionera. En este contexto jubilar, el carisma surge no como una reliquia del pasado, sino como un fuego vivo que guía a la Iglesia hacia la esperanza, la justicia y el servicio compasivo en un mundo herido.
