prayer for more priestly vocations, as well as those of the Permanent Diaconate,
Religious Orders, Brothers, Sisters and all forms of vocations that brings the
light, love and grace of God in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles: Father, in every
generation you provide ministers of Christ and the Church. We come before
you now, asking that you call forth more men to serve our Archdiocese in the
ministerial priesthood. Give us priests who will lead and guide your holy people
gathered byWord and Sacrament.
Bless us with priestly vocations so that we can continue to be a truly Eucharistic
Church, strengthened in our discipleship of Jesus Christ, your Only Son. Raise
up, we pray, men who are generous in their service, willing to offer their lives
and all their gifts for your greater glory and for the good of your people.
Bless us with vocations to the Permanent Diaconate, Religious Orders, Brothers
and Sisters. May all forms of vocations that you have called to be laborers for
your harvest, respond with their own “Amen”.
We make our prayer in the presence and power of the Holy Spirit, through
Christ, Our Lord.
Amen.
