Jesus, Divine Master, who said: “The harvest indeed is great, but the laborers are few,” we lovingly accept your invitation: “Pray the Heavenly Father to send forth laborers into his harvest.”
Inspire a devout crusade for vocations: “All the faithful for all vocations.” More priests! May they be the salt of the earth, the light of the world, the city placed on the mountaintop for the salvation of humanity redeemed by your Blood. More religious, both men and women, to fill the earth with religious houses that welcome your favored children, and that will be centers of light and warmth, sources of piety, gardens of saints, singing “glory to God and peace to people of good will.”
O Mary, “God’s chosen one,” Mother and guardian of holy vocations, pray with us, pray for us, and for all those called by God. Amen.
