Mary Our Help

Novena To St Vincent De Paul

NOVENA PRAYER

 O Glorious Saint Vincent de Paul,
the mention of your name suggests a litany of your virtues:
humility, zeal, mercy, self-sacrifice.
It also recalls your many foundations:
Works of Mercy, Congregations, Societies.

The Church gratefully remembers your promotion of the priesthood.
Inspire all Charitable Workers,
especially those who minister,
to both the spiritually and the materially poor.

O Lord, give us the grace that You bestowed upon,
your servant St. Vincent de Paul,
to relinquish the temptation of material things,
in our holy effort to minister to the poor.

Amen.

Our Father...
Hail Mary...
Glory Be...

(Repeat this prayer for 9 days prior to the Feast of St. Vincent de Paul on September 27.)
