A Prayer For Priestly Vocations

O Lord my God, you renew your Church in every generation by calling forth priests who are exemplary in holiness and serve as living testimonies to your everlasting Love. In your divine plan for our salvation, you provide leaders for your beloved people. Inspire the hearts of young men with courage and compassion, so they may respond to your call with generosity. Grant parents the grace to nurture vocations within their households through their prayers and exemplary lives. Raise up worthy priests for your Altars, passionate yet gentle proclaimers of the Gospel. Increase the number of priests in your Church and keep them steadfast in their devotion and service. May many young men willingly dedicate themselves to serving you and your people.
