Dear Friends,
May the Lord give you peace! Next Sunday is Vocations Sunday and on the 4th Sunday of Easter last year Pope Francis had this to say: 
“Behind and before every vocation to the priesthood or to the consecrated life there is always the strong and intense prayer of someone: a grandmother, a grandfather, a mother, a father or a community. Vocations are born in prayer and from prayer, and only through prayer can they persevere and bear fruit.”
God bless you all.
Fraternally,
Pat
