Vocations Sunday 2019

The World Day of Prayer for Vocations or as better known as ‘Vocations Sunday’ will be celebrated this Sunday 12th May.

Pope Francis has issued a message for the World Day of Prayer for Vocations. The theme of his message is “The Courage to take a risk for God’s Promise”. Below is part of his message

“Dear friends, it is not always easy to discern our vocation and to steer our life in the right direction. For this reason, there needs to be a renewed commitment on the part of the whole Church – priests, religious, pastoral workers and educators – to provide young people in particular with opportunities for listening and discernment. There is a need for a youth ministry and a vocational promotion that can open the way to discovering God’s plan, above all through prayer, meditation on God’s word, eucharistic adoration and spiritual accompaniment.”
