O Saint Vincent de Paul, our guide and patron of charitable works, you who dedicated your life to serving the needy and exemplified the love of Christ. We turn to you, seeking your intercession in our efforts to follow your example.
Help us to see the face of Christ in the poor and the suffering. Inspire us to act with kindness, generosity, and humility, as you once did. Strengthen our hands and hearts to serve those in need, to bring hope where there is despair, and to offer relief to those in distress.
Teach us to be patient and thoughtful in our service and to remember that in giving, we receive. Let us be united in our care for the least of our brothers and sisters, sharing our blessings with joyful hearts.Amen.
