PRIESTS FOR TOMORROW In these pages, you will meet our future shepherds for the Archdiocese of Chicago. These men are preparing for priesthood at Mundelein Seminary and St. John Vianney College Seminary. Please pray the Prayer for Vocations every day, for all vocations, and then take a moment to pray in particular for the seminarians of the day. Consider offering an “Our Father,” “Hail Mary,” and “Glory Be” for their needs and discernment. Please also remember the priests of our archdiocese who have served and are now deceased.

PRAYER FOR VOCATIONS Lord Jesus, We beg you for good and holy priests. In every age you call men to follow you as servants and shepherds of your people. Open their hearts to your call and give them the courage to follow you. Be their rock of refuge and their light as they discern. Help us to support them on their journey, and to love them as your disciples. We thank you for all that you are and all that you do. In your name we pray. Amen.

My child, when you come to serve the Lord, prepare yourself for trials. Be sincere of heart and steadfast, and do not be impetuous in time of adversity. Cling to him, do not leave him, that you may prosper in your last days. Accept whatever happens to you; in periods of humiliation be patient. For in fire gold is tested, and the chosen, in the crucible of humiliation. Trust in God, and he will help you; make your ways straight and hope in him. — Sirach 2:1–6 54
