“The whole world is homeland for the
missionary of Christ”- Maria Antonia Paris-
Our Mother Church and especially our Congregation
urges us to pray for vocations during this month and as consecrated women we
are so faithful and happy to celebrate and to renew our gift of vocation with
Mary. The Church prioritizes and honours our Blessed Mother as patron of our
consecrated life. Our constitution No 21
says; “Following Mary’s example we wish to make our life a constant and generous
‘fiat’ to the will of the Father”. Through her consecration we the Church begin
to learn and to accept the will of our Father. As we dedicate this month to
pray for our own calling and for increasing of vocations to our Congregation,
we are aware that the religious vocation is a special gift and a call from God
that is received in faith and cultivated and discerned in prayer. As a
community we spend quality time with the Lord and pray through the
intercessions of our Mother Mary for all.
As we pray for each Continent, for each of our sister,
we feel that the Lord prepares, moves and helps those He calls, giving the graces
and the blessings needed in order to embrace the religious state and persevere
in it joyfully. Though we are far away from each other, through prayer we feel
the movement of the spirit in us to be united in the Lord who calls us to life.
We pray for each of our perseverance and that all of us whom He has chosen as ministers
and dispensers of His mysteries may be found faithful in fulfilling the
ministry received. We too remember and pray for the perseverance of our
candidates, aspirants, postulants, novices, juniors and for all of us and for
those young people who are ready to put out into deep, to be the sign through
our own consecration may say “YES” to God.
As we place ourselves to pray in a creative way in the
community we cherish the joy within us. Month of prayer for vocation teaches
many thing to be aware; how my contribution towards promotion of vocations, as
well it enables each of us to discover with grateful hearts the God’s call in
our lives, which make us to have courage to say “YES” day by day to God.
