Prayer to the Vincentian Family 

Lord Jesus, you who willed to become poor, five us eyes and a heart directed toward the poor.  Help us to recognize you in them – in their thirst, their hunger, their loneliness, their misfortune.  Enkindle within our Vincentian Family unity, simplicity, humility, and the fire of love that burned in St. Vincent de Paul. 

Strengthen us so that, faithful to the practice of these virtues, we may contemplate you and serve you in the person of the poor and may, one day, we be united with you and them in your kingdom.   Amen
