A Vocations Prayer

Gracious and loving God, Your people are longing to hear your word. Send laborers into your harvest - women and men on fire with your love:
Dedicated single people
- who incarnate your presence in their daily lives, whose availability enables them to respond to a diversity of needs.
Married couples - whose relationships serve as a sign of your fidelity to your people, whose love overflows to their children and neighbors.
Ordained Ministers - who gather the prayers and longing of your people who serve as a channel of your presence through the sacraments.
Religious sisters, brothers, and priests - whose life in community foreshadows our eternal unity in Christ, whose service brings your life to the world.
May each of us respond with courage and generosity to our particular vocations, and may the Church recognize the Spirit's call to men and women of good will, trusting in your abundance to answer all our needs.
Amen.

(USCCB)
