Prayer for the Clerics of St Viator,especially for the Japanese Community

 

This is the prayer we have been saying for these two years.

Lord, bless the Clerics of St Viator all over the world, who are evangelizing as a missionaries in education. Especially, bless the members of the Kyoto Community celebrating its 70th anniversary, following in the footsteps of more than 35 missionaries here so far. Let them be able to keep on preaching the Good News here in Kyoto in their parish and mission school. Amen.

It snowed a lot during the night. Mr Oshima, one of the Viatorians here, got rid of the snow with his colleague before the students came.

コロナ禍に入って、私たちは毎朝、次のような祈りを唱えています。

主よ、教育修道会として福音宣教を続ける世界のヴィアトール修道会を祝福して下さい。特に70周年を迎えた、京都のヴィアトール修道会が、現在まで35人をこえる宣教師の方々の今も生きる魂を受け継ぎ、この土地と建物に染みついた福音を大切に、未来へと述べ伝えていく事が出来ますように。アーメン。

今朝は準会員の大島さんが、生徒たちがくる前に、昨晩降り積もった雪を取り除いてくださっていました。
