Parish Vocation Cross program The church is in need of people open to God's call to serve His church through vocations to the priesthood and religious life. Our need is great. Each week a family in our parish prays for vocations. The family is given the vocation cross, a rosary, the vocation prayer and a video. Volunteers are asked to pray the rosary and the vocation prayer nightly for one week. The next weekend the vocation cross is passed to the next family who has signed up. If you would like to participate, please contact the office. We encourage all parishioners to become involved with this important prayer program.

DIOCESAN VOCATION PRAYER
Heavenly Father, we ask You to bless our diocese with selfless hearts that are willing to serve You by serving Your church.
Lord Jesus, raise up from our homes those called by the Father: courageous and humble men to the Priesthood, generous servants to the Permanent Diaconate, and faithful people to Consecrated Life,
Holy Spirit, help us to live our universal vocation to holiness, by listening to the Father's voice and responding with sacrificial love.
Holy Mary, Model of vocations, teach us to hear and follow your son. Holy Mary, Queen of Priests, sanctify our priests and obtain for us many more. Holy Mary, Mother of the Church, pray for our families and intercede for our children. AMEN
