"...anoint him for this is he...and from that day on the Spirit of the Lord rushed upon him."

"Here am I Lord, I come to do Your will." -- Psalm 40: 8a, 9a

Prayer for Vocations
+++
God our Father, we turn to you in this time of Great Need. We trust in your loving kindness and ask you to hear the prayers we offer for Your Church. Through your grace, we seek both men and women who may offer their lives to to you in the vocation of religious life.
Bless and guide those who are discerning Your call to holiness and service. Give them courage, steadfast love and a spirit of charity as they seek to respond faithfully to the call to the priesthood and religious life.
We offer this prayer for the Diocese of Orlando and for the whole Church in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ, who is Lord, forever and ever. --Amen

If you sense a Vocation...
