Prayer for Vocations

Provident God,

Your loving designs have shaped our universe.
Your loving care continues to sustain all life.

Your plans call each of us to participation
in the ongoing work of creation.

Help us to be your love and to release
your transforming energy in our world.

Touch the hearts of those searching
for a way to respond in love to your call.

Gather those seeking other companions
with whom they can make a difference in our world.

Plant in the hearts of faith-filled women
the seeds of the possibility
of a life as a Sister of Providence.

Help us to create together
a new generation of people
willing to be your loving Providence in our world.

We ask these blessings with confidence
in that Providence that so far has never failed us.

Amen.
