PRAYER FOR VOCATIONS

God our Father, You made each of us to use our gifts in the Body of Christ. We ask that You inspire young people whom You call to priesthood and consecrated life to courageously follow Your will. Send workers into Your great harvest so that the Gospel is preached, the poor are served with love, The suffering are comforted, and Your people are strengthened by the sacraments. We ask this through Christ our Lord, Amen.

“Live in a manner worthy of the call you have received, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another through love, striving to preserve the unity of the spirit through the bond of peace.”  Ephesians 4:1-3

For the Fiscal Year of July 1, 2021 - June 30, 2022

After the adversity of these days,
May joy and celebration return.

To conform to the will od the Father
And to fo what we are told by Jesus,
Who has taken our suffering upon Himself 
And has burdened HImself with our sorros
to lead us through the cross,
to the joy of resurrection, Amen.
Under your protection, Holy Mother of God,
Our lady of Guadalupe, we seek refuge,
Hear our pryer and intercede for us in the Father
