Catholic Prayer for Vocations

There are many different ways to pray for vocations. One way is to pray the Litany of the Saints. This prayer was composed by St. John Vianney, a French priest who died in 1859. It can be found in the Roman Missal, the official book of Masses used by Catholic priests.

Here is a brief translation of the Litany of the Saints:

O God, who through Saint Francis and Blessed John Vianney hast called into Thy service so many servants of Thy Church, grant that we may obtain from Thee a fervent love for all Thine holy works and an unquenchable zeal to promote them; Through Christ Our Lord. Amen

Prayer for vocations with saints is a powerful way to connect with God and ask Him to guide your future. There are many saints who can help you find your calling.

Some saints who can be especially helpful in finding a vocation include St. Francis of Assisi, St. Clare of Assisi, St. Brendan the Navigator, and St. John Paul II. Each of these saints has had a profound impact on their profession or path in life, and they can offer guidance and inspiration as you explore potential career paths.

You can also pray to other saints who have particular gifts or talents that may be helpful in your pursuit of a vocation. For example, you might pray to Saint Michael the Archangel for guidance in choosing a career that will glorify God. Or you might pray to Saint Rita for help in finding an appropriate vocational course or workshop.

The beauty of praying to saints is that there is always someone out there who can help you find the path that leads to fulfillment and happiness. By connecting with them through prayer, you give yourself the opportunity to grow into your true destiny – which could very well be something you never thought possible before!
