Lord Jesus, let your call be heard by the fervent and generous hearts of young people, and make them your followers and ministers.

Provident and loving Jesus, grant to those whom you call the necessary means to succeed and the grace to persevere. May they meet the demands of their call and become salt of the earth and light of the world, holy ministers and dispensers of the mysteries of God.

We ask you for vocations for the whole church, vocations according to your heart, numerous enough to meet the pressing needs of your church and the world. Send true shepherds of souls filled with the Holy Spirit. May their hearts be detached from all worldly entanglements.

Make your priests holy, Lord, splendid and exceptional witnesses to the world that humankind cannot transform without the spirit of the Beatitudes.

Amen

O Mary, we entrust to you the apostolate for the laity, the ministry of the priests, the witnessing of religious.

We pray that priestly and religious vocations may be widely felt and followed for the glory of God and the vitality of the church.

May the new springtime of vocations, their new growth in the whole church, become a significant proof of your motherly presence in the mystery of Christ in our times, and in the mystery of the church throughout the world.

Amen

by Pope John Paul II
