VINCENT DE PAUL - 1960 In an age separated from our own by three centuries, He was a man such a BURNING STAR of kindness and assistance in whom faith in Christ supernaturalized for every form of misery appeared; a natural kindness of soul, this was VINCENT DE PAUL, in whom the CHARITY of Christ stimulated faith, a son of the people, and in whom faith and charity combined sprung from the soil, to conquer evil by good destitute of those goods of fortune and to work miracles for the relief which had enabled other benefactors of every human calamity and misery, of humanity to be great, generous whereby we see how the foolishness of God and magnificent, is wiser than the wisdom of men and rich alone in that FAITH and the weakness of God which works by the charity of Christ, stronger than their strength. by which he was animated and moved.
