Serra Prayer for Vocations

O God, Who wills not the death of a sinner, but rather that he be converted and live, grant we beseech You through the intercession of the Blessed Mary, ever Virgin, Saint Joseph, her spouse, Blessed Junipero Serra, and all the saints, an increase of laborers for your Church, fellow laborers with Christ to spend and consume themselves for souls, through the same Jesus Christ, Your Son, Who lives and reigns with You, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God forever and ever. Amen
 
Lord God, the Provider of all our needs,
you have asked us to pray for workers in your vineyard.
Manifest in your church the Spirit
whom you so abundantly bestowed on the apostles at Pentecost.
Bless our parish and our diocese
with an increase of men and women to minister in your church.
Form our parish in your image
to be the sacred environment
for listening to the Spirit
that these young men and women may hear your call
and respond with generous hearts.
May they give themselves,
their time, and their talents
to serve your Son and the Church.

We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

"Prayer for Priests"*

My God and Father in heaven, that night in the Garden, on the Mount of Olives, Your Son told Peter: " Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, who will promptly send more than twelve legions of angels to my defense?". ( Matt. 26:53 ).

Father, we ask You now: send twelve legions of angels with chalices of strength out into the Gethsemene of the Holy Church to defend and assist our priests, who, strengthened by the power and presence of these angels, may faithfully fulfill their priestly missions. Amen.

"Prayer for Vocations"

O God, who have chosen the apostles to make disciples of all nations and who by Baptism and Confirmation have called us to build up Your Holy Church, we earnestly implore You to choose from among us, Your children, many priests, deacons and religious brothers and sisters who will love You with their whole heart and will gladly spend their entire lives to make You known and loved by all. Amen.

"St. Dominics Blessing"

May God the Father Bless us, May God the Son heal us, May God the Holy Spirit enlighten us. Give us eyes to see with, ears to hear with and hands to do the work of God. Give us feet to walk with and a mouth to preach His words of love and salvation. May the angel of peace watch over us, and lead us at last by our Lords gifts to His Eternal Kingdom.

Through Christ our Lord, Amen.
 
PRAYER FOR
VOCATIONS

Eternal God…
Bless your Church with holy and faithful priests,
deacons, brothers and sisters.

Give those you have called to the married state
and those you have chosen to live as single persons in the world,
the special graces that their lives require.

Form us all in the likeness of your Son so that in him,
with him and through him
we may love you more deeply and serve you more faithfully,
always and everywhere.

With Mary we ask this through Christ our Lord.

Amen.
