Priesthood
"Lord, I have heard you calling. Send me."
- When people pray for vocations they are often hoping that someone else will answer the call. What about you? Have you considered that you may have a vocation to the diocesan priesthood?
- Is prayer and worship an important and regular part of your life?
- Would you like to express your love of God through a life of service to His people?
- Have you found yourself thinking of becoming a priest?
If you can answer “YES” to these questions then why not explore further? Speak to your parish priest or contact the vocations director for the Diocese of Motherwell.

Prayer for Vocations
| Lord, make me a better person |
| more considerate towards others, |
| more honest with myself, |
| more faithful to you. |
| Help me find my true vocation in life |
| and grant that through it I |
| may find happiness myself and bring |
| happiness to others. |
| Grant, Lord that those whom you |
| call to enter the priesthood or the religious life |
| may have the generosity to answer your call, |
| so that those who need your help |
| may always find it. |
| We ask this through Christ Our Lord. |
| Amen. |
