🙏On this World Day of Prayer for Vocations, please join us in praying the archdiocesan prayer for vocations:

God our Father,
You call each of us
to use our gifts in the Body of Christ.

Inspire your people
with desire to know you,
the grace to understand your will,
and, with the strength of the Holy Spirit, the courage to respond
with love and freedom.

are served with love, the suffering are comforted,
and your people are strengthened by the sacraments.
Amen.
