"Every Vocation is a personal and unique event but also a community and ecclesial event. No one is called to walk alone. Every Vocation is raised up by the Lord as a gift for the Christian community, which must be able to benefit from the Vocation." -Pope John Paul II

Is your child or grandchild kind, outgoing, faith filled, caring, intelligent? Do you think that he or she would make a good priest, sister, or religious brother? Have you ever talked to your child or grandchild about the possibility of priesthood or religious life? Surveys tell us that young Catholics think seriously about church vocations, but that no one has ever asked them.

Prayer to Our Lady of Vocations
O Most Holy Virgin, you have kept in your Immaculate Heart the divine command of Jesus: "Pray the Lord of the Harvest to send laborers into his harvest' and you have raised all priestly and apostolic vocations which have bloomed in the Church at all times. We ask you this spirit of prayer and that you may present the supplications which we raise to the Lord of the harvest, so that he may send to the world an abundance of holy laborers for his greater glory and for the salvation of souls. Amen.
