The Prayer
for Vocations
Loving Father, it is Your will that people be saved and
experience the consolation of Your love and mercy. Hear
our prayer for an increase in religious vocations. Call
men and women from all lands and from every walk of life
to bring Your message of hope and salvation to the
entire world. Give them the grace to bring others to
You through Jesus, Your Son, so that people the world
over may share the justice and peace
He came to bring into this world. Amen.

Jesus, we adore You -
Our Priest Ethernal,
Our Teacher Divine,
Our Brother, Our Saviour,
Our God and our All.
Look to our needs, O Jesus -
Our need of priests,
Our need of sisters,
Our need of brothers,
Our need of hearts like Thine.
Give us
vocations, O Jesus -
In our parishes,
In our parishes,
In our homes.
Through
Mary we ask.
With Mary we acclaim -
Praised be Jesus Christ |

Direct words from Pope John Paul II
"There are children and young people waiting for someone
to teach them the way of salvation. There are men
and women whose daily hard work causes them to feel
keenly the need of God. There are old people, sick
and suffering people, waiting for someone to understand
their concerns and reveal to them the hope of heaven...
It is the duty of the Christian people to ask God,
through the intercession Our Lady, that he send works to
the harvest." |
