Catholics urged to participate in 60 hours of Eucharistic adoration

Called to pray for vocations

USCCB Vocations office offers prayer card on the web

This afternoon, a press release was issued by USCCB, calling on all Catholics to participate in the celebration of Pope Benedict XVI's ordination anniversary in June and to mark this event with Eucharistic prayers for vocations. You can read the entire press release here.

Additionally, Sister Mary Joanna Ruhland of the Secretariat of CCLV has written a letter to all of you vocation directors (attached below), reaching out to you to offer their prayer card for this event, available at: www.foryourvocation.org, and to see what you will be doing in your own diocese. You can reply to her directly at: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .


Finally, we hope all of you will continue to use this as another way to promote vocations. If we can do anything for you, please don't hesitate to contact us.
