Prayer for Vocation to the Priestly and Religious Life God of Mercy, give strength and courage to our priests and religious. Through Your Spirit, help them to be men and women of understanding and compassion as Jesus was. Give them joyful and loving hearts knowing that Jesus is with them in their ministries. Inspire other men and women to respond to your call to serve your people. Grant them the grace of courage and generous spirit to be disciples of Jesus through lives of total dedication, serving the church as priests and religious. Placing our trust in your Son, Jesus, we make our prayer in his name. Amen Beatitudes for Nurturing Church Vocations in the Family Blessed are the children of parents who... 1.
