Here is another in our series of “Praying Our Heritage.” The series illustrates quotes from key figures in the Vincentian Heritage.

Let the image and the quote sink in, and take root. These images might surprise you into prayer at various points in your day.

Walking through each day with St. Vincent

St. Vincent told the Daughters of Charity: “Another means of placing ourselves in the presence of God is to imagine ourselves before the Most Blessed Sacrament of the altar. It’s there, dear Sisters, that we receive the most cherished testimonies of God’s love. Let’s love Him dearly and remember that, when He was on earth, speaking of His Father and the Holy Spirit, He said, ‘If anyone loves me, we will come to him,’ and souls will be guided by His holy Providence as a ship by its pilot.”

Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you in all that you do throughout the day.

For the more visually oriented among us, you don’t have to wait for the weekly image on Tuesday. You can browse for yourself. You can even search for images related to key words. Visit and search VinFormation’s database of prayer images.

We hope you will enjoy these time-release prayer capsules!

We would also welcome you sharing with all of us images that inspired you to prayer.
