Vocation Prayer
Loving God, You speak to us and nourish us through the life of this church community.
In the name of Jesus, we ask you to send your Spirit to us so that men and women among us, young and old, will respond to your call to service and leadership in the church.
We pray, especially, in our day, for those who hear your invitation to be a priest, sister, brother, or deacon.
May those who are opening their hearts and minds to your call be encouraged and strengthened through our enthusiasm in your service. Amen.
Prayer of the Sick for Vocations
Lord, You are a good and loving Father so I have great confidence that you are listening to me. Today
we need many priests and consecrated men and women to serve your Church.
I offer my sufferings, my illness, the infirmities of old age, and my personal inconveniences for your greater honor and glory. Give a spirit of generosity to our youth. Give them a vision, your vision, of how they can serve their brothers and sisters in Christ.
Oh God, give me strength to pray constantly, through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
A Senior Citizen's Prayer for Church Vocations
Loving God, You call me to be a person of faith, who desires to grow in wisdom as well as age.
Teach me to be open to you in responding to your love in my life.
As I grow older, sometimes I am sick or without energy, or feel very lonely. Let me remember that you too know what it is to suffer and yet have hope.
I desire to offer the difficulties of my life for those who also struggle to be the people you desire them to be.
I ask that you bless our church community with generous and enthusiastic ministers who desire to work among us, who can bring your Good News to our world. Amen.
Oración por las Vocaciones
Oh Jesús, Pastor eterno de las almas, dígnate mirar con ojos de misericordia a esta porción de tu grey amada. Señor, multiplica las vocaciones y santifica más y más a nuestros sacerdotes. Te lo pedimos por la Inmaculada Virgen María de Guadalupe, tu dulce y Santa Madre.
Oh, Jesús, da a la Diócesis de Sacramento, sacerdotes, religiosos, religiosas, diáconos, y laicos comprometidos según tu corazón.
Oración de Los Enfermos Para las Vocaciones
Señor, Eres un Padre bueno y amoroso, y por eso tengo gran confianza que me escuchas. Hoy necesitamos muchos sacerdotes y hombres y mujeres consagrados para servir a tu Iglesia.
Ofrezco mis sufrimientos, enfermedades, los dolores de la vejez, y mis inconveniencias personales para el mayor honor y gloria vuestra. Da un espíritu de generosidad a nuestra juventud. Dales una visión, tu visión, de cómo pueden servir sus hermanos y hermanas en Cristo.
O Dios, dame la fuerza para rezar sin cesar, por Jesucristo, nuestro Señor. Amén.
