Invocation is a national discernment festival for young adults.  It is aimed at young men and women aged 16-35, who are looking to deepen their relationship with Christ and who are searching for the knowledge and tools to develop their own personal formation, discernment and understanding of God’s will for their lives, for some this may mean being open to the possibility of a vocation to the priesthood or religious life.

Prayer for Vocations:  
Lord Jesus Christ, Shepherd of souls, who called the apostles to be fishers of men, raise up new apostles in your holy Church.  Teach them that to serve you is to reign: to possess you is to possess all things.  Kindle in the young hearts of our sons and daughters the fire of zeal for souls.  Make them eager to spread your Kingdom upon earth.  Grant them courage to follow you, who are the Way, the Truth and the Life; who live and reign for ever and ever.  Amen.

Mary, Queen of Clergy, pray for us.  Help our students who are preparing for priesthood.
