PRAYER FOR LENT
​
Gracious God, Ash Wednesday (Feb 18) begins a period of inner reflection and examination.
The days stretch before us and invite us inward to that silent, holy space that holds your Spirit.
This special time beckons us to see our life through Christ's eyes and the truth and reality of your love incarnate.
Give us the grace to enter the space of these days with anticipation of our meeting. And, when we
open our soul to your presence let your loving kindness flow over us and seep into the
pockets of our hearts.
We ask this for the sake of your love.
Amen
Vision Statement
The St. Vincent de Paul Society is a lay Catholic organization that aspires to live the gospel message by seeing Christ in the poor with love, respect, justice, hope, and joy, and by working to shape a more compassionate society.
​
The members of the SVdP Society of the parish of St. Luke will maintain this vision as each member grows individually through a deeper sense of spiritually and friendship, with the common goal to help those less fortunate by respecting their needs and to share their burdens. We make a commitment to share our resources, our time, and ourselves as we live the virtue of Christian to those we serve.
Did you know St. Vincent de Paul Society is a National Organization?
The National Council of the United States is part of an international society of friends united by a spirit of poverty, humility, and sharing. We are nourished by prayer and reflection, mutually supportive gatherings, and adherence to a basic Rule and Manual (LINK)
