Saint Serra of Des Moines - Prayer for Vocations
God our Father, today may I have an opportunity by my actions to encourage a vocation to the religious life.
Help me to conduct myself in a Christian manner that I might give proper example particularly to the young.
Through the inspiration of Your Holy Spirit, may I also support those in religious life in their vocation of service to your Church.
May the sincerity of my prayers and my concern for vocations result in an increase of laborers for Jesus and His Church.
Amen.

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.
