Today, August 29, 2026, we, the members of the Vincentian Family, pray for survivors of domestic violence rebuilding their lives.

Domestic violence leaves deep wounds that affect body, mind, and spirit. Even after escaping abusive situations, survivors often face fear, uncertainty, and the difficult task of rebuilding their lives.

As followers of Christ, we affirm the dignity of every person and reject all forms of violence and abuse. We are called to create communities where survivors are protected, believed, and supported.

We pray today for all survivors of domestic violence. May they find safety, healing, justice, and the strength to embrace a future filled with hope.

Word of God

“The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.”
(Psalm 9:9)

Prayer

God of protection, be close to all who have suffered violence in their homes. Heal their wounds, restore their confidence, and surround them with people who offer care and support. Amen.
