The Importance of Vocations
In a modern world that grows increasingly secular in nature, it is now more important than ever to foster and promote religious vocations in the Church. Persons with a deep level of faith who wish to serve our Lord by committing themselves to religious life and accepting Holy Orders, serve God and their community in a very unique and most loving way. Serrans believe that vocations to serve God are special and every effort should be made to assist these persons by providing them with access to spiritual and other resources as necessary to support them during Formation.

Serra Prayer for the Perseverance of Vocations
O God, You have constituted Your only-begotten Son supreme and eternal Priest for the glory of Your majesty and the salvation of mankind: grant that those whom He has chosen ministers and dispensers of His mysteries may be found faithful in fulfilling the ministry they have received.
