Prayer for Growing
With each new day that dawns I am growing up, O Lord. It’s
not too soon to start thinking of what I want to be. It’s very hard,
I think, to make the right decision but I pray that You will help
and guide me. Show me what to do. Let me share, someday, my
talents where they’re needed. And when You show me, give me
courage to be generous enough to do what You want.
Prayer for Vocations
O Father, inspire among Christians many holy vocations to the
priesthood that keep alive the faith and preserve the grateful
memory of your son Jesus through preaching his Word and
administering the Sacraments with which you ceaselessly renew
your faithful.
Call forth ministers of your mercy who, through the sacrament of
Reconciliation, may spread the joy of your forgiveness.
O Father, make the Church welcome joyously the many
inspirations of the Spirit of your Son and, docile to His
teachings, nurture vocations to the priestly ministry and to the
consecrated life.
Support the bishops, priests and deacons, the consecrated persons
and all the baptized in Christ, so that they may faithfully fulfill
their mission at the service of the Gospel.
