Prayer for Vocations
[Society for Religious Vocations 10016 South Komensky Avenue Oak Lawn, IL 60453]
God our Father, we consecrate ourselves to the Heart of Your Son, Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and ask You to bless all those who share in and support the mission of the Society for Religious Vocations. Strengthen the spiritual renewal and vitality of all priests and religious so that Your Church may shine more resplendently and bear witness to Your presence in our world today. In particular, inspire many men and women to respond to Your Son's call to "Come, follow Me" as members of those communities which are living the religious life according to the mind of the Church.
Father, we place these needs before You with full confidence and trust in Your goodness and love, and desire their fulfillment according to Your Holy Will.
We ask this through Your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, Who lives and reigns with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen.
