Prayers for Vocations

Prayers for Vocations



Prayer for Vocations

 

Lord Jesus Christ, Our God, You said, "The harvest indeed is great but the laborers are few."

 

Also You requested that prayers be offered for vocations, saying, "Pray therefore the Lord of the harvest that He send laborers into His harvest."

 

Following Your divine plea, we beseech You, call from the midst of our people good and zealous youth to work for God and the salvation of our people.

 

Most Blessed Mother of God, help our youth to overcome all difficulties, and pray Your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, that He grant to our youth the grace of priestly and religious vocations.

 

-Amen.

 


A PRAYER FOR VOCATIONS

 O Jesus, Divine Shepherd of souls, who called the Apostles to become fishers of men, now call the ardent and generous hearts of our youth to make them Your followers and ministers. Let them share Your thirst for that universal redemption for which You daily renew Your sacrifice upon the alter. O Lord Jesus, “always living to make intercession for us,” extend our horizons to the entire world, where so many brethren make silent supplication for the light of truth and the warmth of love, so that answering Your call, many young men may prolong here Your mission, edify Your Mystical Body, the Church, and become “the salt of the earth and the light of the world.”

 

Extend, O Lord, Your loving call to many pure and generous-hearted young women, that they may grow in their desire for evangelical perfection and may dedicate themselves to the service of the Church and their neighbors who so desperately need such assistance and charity.

 

-Amen.
