Prayer Before The Blessed Sacrament For Religious Vocations

Heavenly Father, You have summoned us through the waters of Baptism to follow Your Son in a life dedicated to serving You and one another. We humbly ask for Your guidance as we endeavor to fulfill our vocation in this life. We particularly lift up those who have responded to Your call as priests, brothers, sisters, and deacons. May they remain steadfast in their commitment to following Your Son and devoted to serving their communities. We also pray that many more individuals will embrace the call to dedicate themselves to the work of building Your Kingdom. Lord Jesus, our High Priest and Redeemer, we implore You to inspire men and women to serve as priests and religious; let their hearts be moved by the examples of dedicated servants of the Church. Holy Spirit, bestow upon parents the grace to be generous and trusting of You and their children, so that their sons and daughters may discern their vocations with wisdom and freedom. We ask this through Christ, Our Lord.Amen.
