Novena to St. Paul the Apostle Day Eight.
In reflecting on perpetual profession, Sr Margaret Charles shares this beautiful prayer, which we offer in a special way for Sr Julie Marie Benedicta, who makes her perpetual profession today!
“I hand my vocation to you to do with it what you will. It is your gift...your gift that I return a hundredfold to you. I bow before you, hands extended—here it is, along with all those, your friends, whom I have met. I will never forget them in prayer and union. They are yours. Here Lord—my vocation is yours. ‘Take Lord, receive, your love and your grace are enough for me.’ It has always been You. Amen.”
