Prayer for Religious Priests, Brothers<br />

and Sisters<br />

Heavenly Father, in Your wisdom You have called certain<br />

women and men to a life <strong>of</strong> special consecration so that in<br />

prayerful observance <strong>of</strong> a lifestyle <strong>of</strong> poverty, chaste celibacy and<br />

obedience, they might be witnesses to us that, as Saint Paul<br />

says, “our true citizenship is in heaven.” Give them, Lord, the<br />

grace <strong>of</strong> joy and perseverance in their holy vocation.<br />

We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.<br />

Prayer for the Laity<br />

Heavenly Father, You have called us all to holiness which means<br />

sharing in Your divine life. Fill us with a sense <strong>of</strong> our true dignity<br />

as those called to be Your daughters and sons in the world and<br />

Your ambassadors <strong>of</strong> justice, love and peace. Give us the desire to<br />

be worthy <strong>of</strong> this great calling and the courage to live up to it.<br />

We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.<br />

Prayer in Time <strong>of</strong> Need<br />

Heavenly Father, in my present need, help me to believe that<br />

You are aware <strong>of</strong> my anxiety and will do what is best for me.<br />

Give me the strength to trust You and put the present and future<br />

in Your hands. Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen.<br />
