Apostolic Prayer - Prayers for Vocations

Apostolic Prayer - Prayers for Vocations

Eternal Father, it is Your will that all should be saved.
Great is Your mercy, Your Son Jesus Christ, died for all.
Teach all people to recognize You and love You.
With deep faith in Christ's death and resurrection we pray.
Send forth, O Lord, labourers into Your vineyard, and spare Your people.
Eternal Word, Redeemer of all creation, convert all souls to You.
You have been obedient for all, even to death on the cross.
Look upon the merits of Your Mother and of all the angels and saints who intercede for us.
Send forth, O Lord, labourers into Your vineyard, and spare Your people.
Holy Divine Spirit, through the infinite merits of our Lord Jesus Christ, enkindle in all our hearts Your ardent love that can do all things, that all may be one fold and one shepherd, and that all may arrive in Heaven to sing Your divine mercy.
Queen of Apostles all the angels and saints, pray the Lord of the harvest to send labourers into His vineyard and spare His people that, united with Him and the Father and the Holy Spirit, we may all rejoice forever and ever.
Amen

Original prayer written by St. Vincent Pallotti.
 


Note: Our parish St. Agnes Waterloo is staffed by Pallottine fathers. We often pray a version of this prayer after mass for vocations before the final blessing.
