Society of St. Vincent DePaul – Mid-Year Meeting

Bishop Murphy focuses his address to the St. Vincent de Paul Society on the meaning and real world applications of the Vincentian Prayer. He defines prayer as a “conversation with God.” His address articulates what in his opinion the prayer challenges all Vincentians to do in living out their vows. Bishop Murphy concludes this address by stating, “If this prayer is to be our conversation with God as Vincentians, then we pray for the courage to take seriously what we say and we ask for the help to make our prayer a reality.”
