"A priest is not a priest for himself. He is not a priest for himself; he is a priest for you. After God, the priest is everything." -St. John Vianney

The primary purpose of an ordained priest is to offer the sacrifice of the Mass and consecrate the Eucharist. The feast of Corpus Christi serves as an ideal time to honour, pray for, and foster vocations to the priesthood.

When it comes to giving of ourselves to others, even to God, we can be afraid. Yet contemplate the self-gift of Jesus in the Eucharist. He becomes accessible to us, so we can love Him. In return, can we place ourselves in His hands, so that He can help us to give to others?

Please pray that all Catholics will adore the great gift of the Holy Eucharist given to them by Jesus Christ through the hands of His priests, and that those chosen as priests will inspire many more to follow Him.

A Prayer for Vocations by St John Paul II:
Lord Jesus, as once you called the first disciples and made them fishers of men, continue to let resound today Your sweet invitation: “Come and follow me.”
Grant to men and women in our day the grace and trust to respond to Your voice.
Sustain our bishops, priests and consecrated souls in their apostolic work.
Give perseverance to our seminarians and to all those living a life of total consecration to Your service.
Enkindle in our communities a missionary zeal.
Send, Lord, workers into Your fields to feed and guide Your flock as Good Shepherds in imitation of You.
Mary, Mother of the Church, Model of Vocations, help us to say “Yes” to the Lord who calls each one of us to play our part in His plan of salvation. Amen.

A culture of vocations is not built overnight. It grows through ordinary faithfulness. Families praying together. Priests mentoring youngsters. Children learning to listen for God’s voice. Parishioner encouragement. Holy Hours offered quietly each week for vocations.

Ordination season is here.
The Church is receiving new priests.
We rejoice and give thanks.

And still, we look ahead.

Because the call does not stop.

These shoes will not stay empty forever.
The next yes is being invited now.
The next vocation is already stirring.

Who will fill them?

The complete gift of self between the Father and the Son yields the Holy Spirit. This union is founded on love - and we are made in the image and likeness of this model. Our Vocations are called to be life giving unions that bear fruit and are created by self-sacrificing love.
