We thank you for the witness and ministry

Archdiocese of Birmingham.
Continue to send labourers into the
harvest.
Inspire the hearts of your people to
answer your call to the priesthood, the
diaconate and to the religious life.
Bless our families with a spirit of
generosity and may those you call have
the courage to give themselves to your
Church in faith.
Send your Holy Spirit upon me to guide
me in my own Vocation.
Enlighten my mind to show me what you
want of me;
fill my heart with determination to answer
your call in faith, hope and love.
We ask this through Jesus Christ, Our Lord.
