The Vincentian Prayer Minsitry ProgramLet the Vincentians pray for you and your loved ones!
Since November 1, 2006, the Vincentian Prayer Ministry Program has been a way of expressing thanks to you for sharing in the work of the Vincentians. It also allows you to give the gift of prayer to your loved ones. The Vincentian Prayer Ministry Program is based at St. Mary’s of the Barrens in Perryville, Missouri. This is a natural home, because generations of Vincentians have been missioned from this historic and holy place. The Program is an expression of the ongoing mission at the Barrens. Many missions have had their beginnings at the Barrens, but this one is special. Many of the retired priests and brothers living at the motherhouse have spent their careers going wherever their ministry took them. Now, in their senior years and perhaps with physical infirmities, they have found a meaningful ministry in which they can serve from their home. You can enroll your friends and loved ones in the ministry of prayer by which they will be remembered at Masses and through daily prayers and offerings by the Vincentians. In today’s world, the gift of prayer is among the most important and meaningful gifts one can give – or receive. The Vincentian Prayer Ministry Program is an opportunity for you to express your support for a family member or friend during different times in our lives, such as:
The Vincentians have added a Christmas card to the Prayer Ministry Program. During the Christmas season, you are invited to renew your love for God and for each other. By sending your loved ones a Christmas card in which they will be remembered for one year in the prayers and offerings of the senior Vincentians, you can share the love God has shown us by sending us Jesus as our Savior. To obtain Prayer Ministry cards, email the development office, contact the Congregation of the Mission office by phone at 314-344-1184, or mail your request to 13663 Rider Trail North, Earth City, MO 63045. You will receive a response envelope with each prayer card. When you mail your response card to the Congregation of the Mission office, you will receive replacement tribute cards for your use. Your voluntary gift will be recognized in the Vincentian newsletter. Congregation of the Mission Western Province |
