Blessed are the footsteps of her who proclaims
the Gospel, the Good News of peace.
Blessed are the handmaids of the Church,
for they possess the heart of this Mother.
Blessed are the walkers of God, who in the
mystic silence of the convent study the ways of
the world, and on the morrow walk them
to reach souls.
Blessed are these angels of the Lord, who
seek out those who have lost or never found the
path of the Church.
Blessed are the postmistresses of God, who
bring to every family his Gospel of Love.
Blessed are these cooperators with the zealous
efforts of priests; silently they preach Jesus
Christ, the Way and the Truth and the Life.
Blessed are the imitators of Mary, who present
Jesus to the shepherds, to the Magi, to Simeon in
the Temple, to the disciples, to the world.
Blessed are the Daughters of St. Paul, who
possess the heart of their Father, who give their
Father’s word, who with their Father-suffering,
praying, working-accomplish the work
assigned them by God.
From various parts of the earth, the roads
converge on a single meeting point. Jesus is
there extending the invitation: “Come, blessed
ones, into my Father’s kingdom”.
May the blessing of God, Father, Son and
Holy Spirit, descend upon them and accompany
them as they journey so that they may bear fruit
that will last, for the glory of God and peace to all
men and women. Amen.
