NOVENA TO ST. VINCENT DE PAUL- SEPTEMBER 27
 Begins September 18
 
 O God, for the salvation of the poor and for the education of the clergy, you bestowed apostolic strength on the priest, St. Vincent de Paul; grant that we may be animated by this same zeal, loving our suffering brothers and hastening to them with our help.  Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
 
Hail Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee. 
Blessed art thou among women
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
            Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of death. Amen.
 
St. Vincent de Paul,
Pray for us.
