Oblate Novena for Vocations: May 28th Day 8
Dear friends welcome to Day 8 of our 2023 Novena of prayer for Oblate Vocations. We join our Oblate Parish of St Joseph’s Catholic Church in Colwyn Bay, North Wales for today’s prayer. Thanks to Br Michael, Joseph, Wendy, and Fr Vimal for leading today’s novena prayers.
The eighth day
VOCATION – THE CHARISM
Prayer
Holy Father,
we come to you because Jesus asked us to pray that you send workers into your harvest. Therefore, send us generous young men, passionate for Jesus,
willing to make of their whole life a total oblation to you,
to become close to the poorest and most abandoned,
and to proclaim the Gospel.
May they burn with the same fire that you enkindled in Saint Eugene;
may they come to be part of his family
and, with all the Oblates, may they continue the work of Redemption.
Mary Immaculate,
Who first gave Jesus to the world, be with us as we pray. Amen
Or
Father, you chose Eugene de Mazenod and inspired him with wonderful love for the poor and gave him the gift of touching their hearts. May
the Oblate sons of Eugene continue, increase
and flourish in the Church. May they never cease proclaiming the liberating Gospel of Jesus Christ to the poor in imitation of their founder. Raise up zealous men of faith to the Oblate family for the glory of your name. We ask this through Christ Our Lord. Amen.
Our Father… Hail Mary…
