I have just found out that I have been accepted by my diocese for their permanent deaconate formation program!

I am humbled and slightly terrified about this, but I charge ahead knowing that God is in control…

I humbly ask for all your prayers as I begin this marvelous journey!
 
I have a heart for those with a religious vocation, so you have my sincere prayers.

Blessings and may our Lord strengthen you for this journey.
May the Holy Spirit inspire you, in your words, in your actions and in your ministry.
May our Lady protect you under her precious mantle,
May your guardian angel be ever watchful with you every day, guiding you
and leading you even unto your final breath, a holy and beautiful reminder of God’s love and mercy to those who seek you for guidance.
May the Saints pray for you, especially in moments of trial and temptation.
May those who support you in this be ever vigilant in their prayers.

And may our Lord Jesus Christ, who is our Savior, our Love and our Life,
be your ever constant reminder of how much our Father loves you.

Amen.
 
Wonderful! May our Lord continue to bless and protect you. May you be abandoned to His merciful love full of confidence in his merciful love. Amen.
 
Our Father, Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of death.

Amen.

Glory be to the Father,
and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning,
is now,
and ever shall be,
world without end.

Amen.
 
I will pray that the Lord will bless you and guide you along your journey.

Congrats on the start of one amazing journey!

Heavenly Father, please continue to bless and guide your chosen one as he begins a life in your service. Give him courage when he’s tempted, inspiration when he’s floundering, and every resource that he needs to follow your commands. I ask in your beloved Son’s sake, Amen!
 
I will pray a rosary for you. May God bless you in your vocation 🙂
 
Praying for your intentions….

Lord Jesus, You have said, “Learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart.” With confidence in Your loving heart which offers rest to weary souls, we come to You in this time of special need. In Your unfailing love, read the prayer that is written on our hearts, and grant the grace that we ask of You, in accordance with Your holy will. In Your name we pray. Amen.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, and sought thy intercession, was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother, to thee I come, before thee I stand sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate! Despise not my petitions, but, in thy mercy, hear and answer me. Amen.
 
I am glad there is a permanent diaconate program in your area. Here in my country it seems most deacons here are transitional and after a few moinths go to the sacred order of priesthood due to shortage of priests.

Prayer for Vocations

Lord Jesus, let your call be heard
by the fervent and generous hearts
of young people, and make them
your followers and ministers.
Provident and loving Jesus,
grant to those whom you call
the necessary means to succeed
and the grace to persevere.
May they meet the demands of their call
and become salt of the earth
and light of the world,
holy ministers and dispensers
of the mysteries of God.
We ask you for vocations
for the whole Church,
vocations according to your heart,
numerous enough
to meet the pressing needs
of your Church and the world.
Send true shepherds of souls
filled with the Holy Spirit.
May their hearts be detached
from all worldly entanglements.
Make your priests holy, Lord,
splendid and exceptional witnesses
to the world
that the humankind cannot be transformed
without the spirit of the Beatitudes.
Amen.

Prayer to Mary for Vocations

O VIrgin Mary,
Mother of Jesus,
and Mother of the Church,
to you we commend
our young people,
in particular those
called to closely follow
your Son.
You know the difficulties,
the struggles,
the obstacles they must face.
Assist them to answer “yes”
to the divine call, as you did
at the invitation of the angel.
Draw them near to your heart
so that they can understand
the beauty and the joy that
awaits them when the Lord Jesus
calls them into His intimacy,
to be witnesses of His love
in the world. Amen.
