Indulgenced prayers for vocations

Almighty God, Father of Jesus Christ our eternal High Priest, bless our families. Grant that they may have the honour and privilege of giving to Thy Church sons and daughters to serve God in the sacred priesthood and the religious life.

Mary, Queen of the Clergy, pray for us ; obtain for us many holy priests. Help our students who are preparing for the priesthood.
