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

The originality of Saint Vincent’s version of Christianity

Saint Vincent believed that in imitation of Jesus, the essential mission of Christians is saving the poor. That is why he would take as motto for his Congregation, Isaiah’s and Saint Luke’s text: “The Lord has sent me to preach the Good News to the poor.” And for the Daughters of Charity, the text of Saint Paul: “The Charity of Christ urges us.”
