3 BE a PRIEST Lord, to whom shall we go? You alone have the words of everlasting life. John 6:68 Is Jesus Christ calling you to become a Catholic Priest? For many are called, but few are chosen. Prayer for Priestly Vocations Father, in every generation you provide ministers of Christ and the Church. We come before you now, asking that you call forth more priests to serve our Church. Give us priests who will lead and guide your holy people gathered by Word and Sacrament. Bless us with priestly vocations so that we can continue to be a truly Eucharistic Church, strengthened in our discipleship of Jesus Christ, your only Son. Raise up, we pray, priests who are generous in their service, willing to offer their lives and all their gifts for your greater glory and the good of your people. We make our prayer in the presence and power of the Holy Spirit, through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
