Prayer for Vocations

Holy and provident Father,
you are the Lord of the vineyard and the harvest
and you give each a just reward for their work.
In your design of love,
you call men and women to work with you
for the salvation of the world.
We thank you for Jesus Christ, your living Word,
who has redeemed us from our sins
and is among us to assist us in our poverty.
Guide the flock to which you have promised possession of the Kingdom.
Send new workers into your harvest
and set in the hearts of pastors
faithfulness to your plan of salvation,
perseverance in their vocation
and holiness of life.

Christ Jesus,
Who on the shores of the Sea of Galilee called the apostles,
and made them the foundation of the Church
and bearers of your Gospel,
in our day, sustain your people on its journey.
Give courage to those whom you call to follow you
in the priesthood and the consecrated life,
so that they may enrich God’s field with
the wisdom of your Word.
Make them docile instruments of your love
in everyday service
of their brothers and sisters.

Spirit of Holiness,
Who pour out your gifts on all believers and,
especially, on those called to be Christ’s ministers,
help young people to discover the beauty of the divine call.
Teach them the true way of prayer,
which is nourished by the Word of God.
Help them to read the signs of the times,
so as to be faithful interpreters of your Gospel
and bearers of salvation.

Mary, Virgin who listened
and Virgin of the Word made flesh in your womb,
help us to be open to the Word of the Lord,
so that, having been welcomed and meditated upon,
it may grow in our hearts.
Help us to live like you
the beatitudes of believers
and to dedicate ourselves with unceasing charity
to evangelizing all those who seek your Son.
Grant that we may serve every person,
becoming servants of the Word we have heard,
so that remaining faithful to it
we may find our happiness in living it.

Amen.

Hail, Mary, full of grace;
all generations call you blessed.

Hail, Mother of God;
when asked by the angel
to bear the Son of the Most High,
filled with faith, you responded:
“Let it be done unto me according to your word."

Holy Mother of Jesus,
at the wedding feast at Cana,
you prompted your Son to perform His first sign.
Be with us as we discern our life’s work
and guide us in the way
we are called to follow in the footsteps of your Son.

Holy Mother of the Savior,
at the foot of the cross
you mourned the death of your only Son.
Bless and embrace the loving parents of all priests,
deacons, brothers and sisters.

Holy Mother of the Good Shepherd,
turn your motherly care to our diocese.
Intercede for us to the Lord of the harvest
to send more laborers into the harvest.

Queen of Peace,
Mirror of Justice,
Health of the Sick,
inspire vocations to the priesthood in our time.
Let the word of your Son be made flesh anew
in the lives of persons
anxious to proclaim the Good News of everlasting life.
Draw them near to the heart of your Son
so that they can understand the beauty and the joy
that awaits them
when the Lord Jesus calls them
to be His witnesses.
