Diocese of Sale
Vocation Prayer 2024

HEAVENLY FATHER, Lord of the harvest, we earnestly ask you to bless our
diocese and the Church with many priests, deacons and religious who will love
you fervently, and gladly and courageously live their lives in service to your

Son’s Church under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

Bless our families and parishes that we may be given the grace and strength to
live our baptismal vocation to be holy, as You are. Bless us that we will respond
to your invitation to be living witnesses and disciples of hope as we discern our

life in your son, Jesus Christ.

Bless young men and women to respond openly and generously to your
invitation to become ministers of your Word and Sacraments, or to serve You
faithfully in the covenant of Marriage, or the dignity of single life.
Mary, Mother of the Church, the model of every vocation, help us to say “yes”
to the Lord who calls us to cooperate in the divine plan of salvation.

Amen
