    The Vincentian Family Daily Intention: June 20, 2026

    by .famvin | Jun 20, 2026 | The Vincentian Family Daily Intention

    Today, June 20, 2026, we, the members of the Vincentian Family, pray for better support for single-parent families.

    Many single parents carry immense burdens: financial strain, emotional fatigue with little time to rest or care for themselves.

    Often judged or left alone, they still strive to love generously and raise children with hope.

    As Vincentians, we honor their dignity and call for stronger social and pastoral support to lift their heavy load.

    We pray today for all single-parent families—that they may find strength, encouragement, and a loving community around them.

    Word of God
    “He lifts the needy from the ash heap and seats them with princes.”
    (Psalm 113:7–8)

    Prayer
    God of steadfast love, strengthen those who parent alone. Surround them with care, justice, and the grace they need for each day. Amen.

     

    On this same day, we celebrate the foundation of the Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus of Hangzhou, established in 1914, by Bishop Paul Albert Faveau, C.M., of the Diocese of Hangzhou. Inspired by Vincentian spirituality, this Congregation was founded to serve the Catholic community in China through prayer, education, and charitable works. The Sisters committed themselves to teaching in local schools, caring for the sick, and accompanying families in pastoral outreach, all while fostering devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Despite facing political and social upheavals over the decades, they have faithfully borne witness to the Gospel through humble perseverance and compassionate service.
