Vincent de Paul
Vincent de Paul
Loving God, we thank you for your servant Vincent de Paul, who gave himself to training clergy to work among the poor and provided many institutions to aid the sick, orphans and prisoners. May we, like him, encounter Christ in the needy, the outcast and the friendless, that we may come at length into your kingdom where you reign, one God, holy and undivided Trinity, for ever and ever. Amen.
Good Books and Good Talk, a monthly seminar, resumes today with a discussion of Flaubert’s masterful short work, “A Simple Heart,” about a girl who thinks the Holy Ghost is a bird. Un coeur simple is widely and easily available in many new and used versions–participants should find their own copies. Although Flaubert wrote in French, Father Austin plans to lead the discussion in English.
