Prayers for Vocations

 

 

Faithful God,

You sent your son, Jesus,

to be our Good Shepherd,

Through our baptism

you blessed us and called us

to follow Jesus who leads us

on the path of life.

 

Renew in us the desire to remain faithful

to our commitment to serve you and the Church.

Bless all who dedicate their lives to you

through marriage, the single life, the deaconate,

priesthood, and consecrated life.

Give insight to those

who are discerning their vocation.

 

Send us to proclaim the Good News

of Jesus, our Good Shepherd,

through the power of the Holy Spirit, Amen.

 

Another Prayer for Vocations

 

God of Love, You call us to live in love through the grace of our baptism.

Bless us with the courage to carry out the mission of Jesus.

  Grant us open and generous hearts to see the needs of others and to respond with compassion.

 

May the Church be blest with women and men who are dedicated to you through marriage,

the single life, the diaconate, priesthood, and the consecrated life.

It is in Christ and through Christ that we offer ourselves to you now and forever.  Amen
