Prayer for Peace in Ukraine<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

God of Peace, whose light dispels the darkest night, we pray for the people of Ukraine at this time of warfare and violence. Give comfort to those who suffer and calm to those who live in fear. Grant eternal life to those who have died and consolation to those who mourn. Companion those who are fleeing their homeland and grant them a safe haven. Open the hearts of those who live in neighboring countries as they welcome refugees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Convert the hearts and minds of those who choose arms and protect those who wage peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God of hope, inspire leaders to seek reconciliation with enemies by embracing nonviolence. Give diplomats wisdom, understanding, and insight and lead them in the way of peace. May the universal church be salt and light in this dark time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inspire compassion in the hearts of all your people and give us hope for a world where justice rolls down like water and righteousness like an ever\u0016flowing stream. We ask this through Jesus Christ, Prince of Peace and Light of the World, who taught us,\u201cBlessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called children of God,\u201d through the intercession of Mary, Queen of Peace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Prayer for Vocations<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Heavenly Father, bless your church with an abundance of holy and zealous priests, deacons, brothers and sisters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Give those you have called to the married state and those you have chosen to live as single persons in the world, the special graces that their lives require. Form us all in the likeness of your Son so that in Him, with Him, and through Him we may love you more deeply and serve you more faithfully, always and everywhere. With Mary we ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI would like to ask you: have you sometimes heard the Lord\u2019s voice, in a desire, in a worry, did he invite you to follow him more closely? Ask Jesus what he wants of you and be brave! Be brave! Ask him this!\u201d<\/p>\n-Pope Francis, St. Peter\u2019s Square, April, 2013<\/em> <\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
