In your name, O Jesus, I bless God our Father and I give thanks, together with the entire heavenly court, for the communion of saints, for so many seeds of holiness around me and for the exemplary role of my brothers and sisters in the Church and in the world. All this is the work of the Spirit that springs from the Father, that covers your Word and that you give us without ceasing. I thank you for permanently being the donated life, the water and the spilled blood, the life of the Church that leads us from our temporal condition to blessed eternity. 

Amen.

God, my Father,

You created me with a specific purpose

for my life; this is my vocation.

By following Your plan,

I will be happy on Earth,

earn the reward of Heaven,

and help others do the same.

Please help me to hear,

understand, and follow

Your call with my whole heart,

especially when it seems most difficult.

Mary, Mother of God and my Mother,

pray for me to know and accept God’s will for my life.

Amen.

God our Father, You made each of us

to use our gifts in the Body of Christ.

 We ask that You inspire

young people whom You call to

the priesthood and consecrated life

to courageously follow Your will.

Send workers into Your great harvest

so that the Gospel is preached,

the poor are served with love,

the suffering are comforted,

and Your people are strengthened

by the sacraments

We ask this through

Christ our Lord,

Amen
