Second Collection April 21 & 22– Catholic Home Missions Appeal

Next week, we will take up the Catholic Home

Missions Appeal. Right now, over 40 percent of dioceses in the United States are considered home

mission territory because they are unable to fund the essential pastoral work needed in their communities. Your support of this appeal helps ease the struggle of these dioceses. Please prayerfully consider how you can support this appeal. More information can be

found at www.usccb.org/home-mission.

World Day of Prayer for Vocations April 22, 2018

The purpose of this day is to publically fulfill the Lord’s instruction to, “Pray the Lord of the harvest

to send laborers into His harvest” (Mt 9:38; Lk 10:2). Please pray that young men and women

hear and respond generously to the Lord’s call to the priesthood, diaconate, religious life, societies

of apostolic life or secular institutes.

PRAYER FOR VOCATIONS God our Father, we thank you for calling men and women to serve in your Son’s Kingdom as priests, deacons, religious, and consecrated

persons. Send your Holy Spirit to help us respond generously and courageously to your call.

May our community of faith support vocations of sacrificial love in our youth.

We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,

one God, forever and ever. Amen.
