Prayer for Vocations

Loving God and Father of all, we thank you for all that we are and have, and for all that we are able to do. We thank you most of all that through baptism we share in your life, and through your Holy Spirit are formed with Christ Jesus as your sons and daughters. Dedicated to the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph and urged on by the charism of our founder, Father John Berthier, we pray that people of our time will be enlightened by the Spirit to discern their particular calling in life.

We pray especially for vocations, which respond to the missionary task of the Church and contribute to the evangelization of all for the coming of the Kingdom of God. Enkindle with fire and zeal of your love the hearts of those whom you have called to evangelize in far away places, different cultures and wherever the Gospel needs to be proclaimed.

Awaken within the hearts of many, a call to minister as religious sisters and brothers; as deacons or priests; as married couples or as single persons. Grant us all the grace to draw others to the Gospel, to promote vocations and to commit ourselves to the pastoral care of families.  Jesus, Mary and Joseph, enlighten us, help us and save us.  Amen.

  • Marriage Tip for: 3/9/2010
    Be deliberate about saying "no" to some things so you can open up time for a regular date night. Saying "no" to one thing allows you to say "yes" to more important things.
  • Marriage Tip for: 3/8/2010
    Talking is not always the same as communication. Talk is cheap. Being a person of one's word and following through with action makes communication true.
