In the name + of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Opening Intention O Lord, I unite my heart with all the Saints in heaven and with all the Just on earth; I unite with You, my Jesus, to praise Your holy Mother worthily and to praise You in her and through her. I renounce all the distractions that may come to me while I am praying this rosary. O Lord, I offer You this rosary for the increase in vocations to the priesthood, religious life and the permanent diaconate and for a strengthening of all current vocations, lay or religious. O Lord, I offer You this opening Creed to honor the faith You brought to Your Apostles upon this earth and to ask You to permit me to share in that same faith. Most Holy Trinity, I offer You this opening Our Father to adore You in Your oneness and to acknowledge You as the first cause and the last end of all things. O Heavenly Father, I offer You these three opening Hail Mary’s to thank You for all the graces which You have given to Mary and which You have given to Your followers through her intercession. O Jesus, may Your Mother Mary watch over and protect all young men and women considering a vocational call to priestly or religious life 1. Annunciation: Let us offer this decade for those who are being called to the priesthood or religious life that they, like Mary, may have the grace to respond whole-heartedly 2. Visitation: Let us offer this decade for those who have been called but are hesitating. May God’s grace hurry them forward to answer the call and thus begin to labor for the harvest 3. Nativity: Let us offer this decade for all parents that they may provide an atmosphere of love and faith in the home. May parents thus help foster their children’s vocations 4. Presentation: Let us offer this decade for the grace parents need to recognize the gift of their children and thus offer them to the divine plan of God. May His will determine every moment of their lives… 5. Finding: Let us offer this decade for those parents who find it difficult to understand and thus support their child’s vocation as a priest or religious. May they be graced with the faith to support God’s will for their children and, like Joseph and Mary, to hold the mysterious ways of God in their hearts
O Queen of the holy Rosary, you came to Fatima to reveal to the three shepherd children the treasures of grace which are hidden in it. Inspire my heart with a sincere love of this devotion, in order that by meditating on the mysteries of our redemption which are contained in it we may obtain peace for the world, the conversion of sinners and of Russia, and the favor which I ask of you in this Rosary (Name Intentions). I ask it for the greater glory of God, for your own honor, and for the good of souls, especially my own. I offer this Rosary for the purpose of knowing the truth and obtaining contrition and pardon for my sins. 1. Annunciation: That one with the Blessed Virgin Mary, those now discerning their vocations will grow in their ability to recognize the Lord’s call and respond with generous hearts: "Fiat!" 2. Visitation: That through the power of the Holy Spirit, all men and women will be led to their true vocations in Christ, proclaiming the kingdom of God by the witness of their lives 3. Nativity: That Catholic mothers will make a home for the Lord in their hearts and in their families, welcoming His call to their children, especially should He honor them with vocations to the priesthood or the consecrated life 4. Presentation: That the coming of the new heaven and new earth will be hastened through the holy lives and faithful witness of all those called to serve the Lord as priests, sisters and brothers 5. Finding: For grace of confidence in prayer for all those discerning their vocation as priests, sisters and brothers, that they will be faithful to the voice of the Good Shepherd
In the name + of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
