Holy Hour for Vocations before Ordination

Join Archbishop Etienne and Joseph Tapia-Beeman for a Holy Hour for Vocations before Joseph’s ordination to the priesthood the following morning.

As Joseph approaches the conclusion of his priestly formation, come pray for him, for the future of his priestly ministry, and for an increase in vocations to the priesthood in the Archdiocese of Seattle, that more young men hear God’s call!

If you are unable to participate in person, please join the livestream: (Link to come)

Archdiocese of Seattle Prayer for Vocations

God our Father,
You call each of us
to use our gifts in the Body of Christ.

Inspire your people
with desire to know you,
the grace to understand your will,
and, with the strength of the Holy Spirit,
the courage to respond
with love and freedom.

Send workers into your great harvest
so that the Gospel is preached, the poor
are served with love, the suffering are comforted,
and your people are strengthened by the sacraments.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
