Your Vocation
Support Our Ministries
to God’s people.
Lord God, You called St. Gaspar del Bufalo to renew the Church through the ministry of the Word and the proclamation of our salvation in Christ’s Precious Blood. Continue to call men and women to share in that mission as brothers, sisters, priests and Companions who respond to the cry of the Blood in our world today. Give them the graces they need to answer the call and live as your ever faithful servants. We ask this in the name of Jesus who shed his Blood for us. Amen.
In this powerful episode of the Restoring Hope Podcast, Fr. Barry Fischer, C.PP.S., of the Missionaries of the Precious Blood, reflects on his missionary experience in Guatemala—a place where he witnessed poverty, violence, fear, and heartbreaking loss firsthand.
Through these experiences, Fr. Barry shares how he came to recognize the crucified Christ in the poor, the rejected, the marginalized, and those whose suffering is too often ignored.
Drawing from Scripture and the spirituality of the Precious Blood of Jesus, Fr. Barry challenges us to resist becoming numb to the suffering around us. Instead, Christians are called to develop the compassionate heart of Christ—to hear the cry of the poor, defend the dignity of every human life, and respond with love, mercy, and hope.
His prayer is simple but powerful: May our hearts never become hardened to the suffering of others.
