Pray for Vocations
Brothers and sisters,

Go forth! Remember the beauty of your first call. Jesus continues to call you today with the same full love and untamed grace.

Go forth! There is always more to do, to encounter, to be grateful for, to be astonished by. Begin and end with the joy of prayer—the marrow of consecrated life.

Go forth! Each of us has a role to play in the Church. Witness and sow well each day, and look to tomorrow with hope.

Go forth! Grow in love for God so that others will be attracted by the divine light in you. Welcome the new vocations the Lord sends to continue the work of consecration.

We ask this through the intercession of Mary, Mother of God and first disciple of her son, Jesus, our Lord. Amen.

-Pope Francis

World Day of Prayer for Consecrated Life
The United States Catholic Conference of Bishops recently asked some of their newly professed men and women religious to share something about themselves that others may find surprising. Their answers provide some insight into how each discovered their vocational call.

Sister Laurie Sullivan shared the following:

"I have worked many years in accounting, but my heart and spirit is drawn to simplicity, radical poverty, solidarity with the poor and service to others."
