St Paul the Apostle is holding Adoration for Vocations every Thursday from 5:00-7:00pm at the chapel.

Adoration for vocations is a dedicated time of prayer before the Blessed Sacrament, specifically focused on asking God to send more laborers into the Church—specifically for priesthood, consecrated religious life, and holy marriages.

Key Aspects of Adoration for Vocations:

Purpose and Focus: The primary goal is to fulfill the scriptural command to pray for vocations (Mt 9:38), recognizing them as a gift from God that requires intentional, trusting petition.

Intention Areas: Prayers are directed towards increasing vocations to the priesthood and religious life, supporting those currently in formation, guiding young people in discernment, and praying for the holiness of families (the "domestic church").

Structured Holy Hours: These often include opening prayers/hymns, scripture readings, meditations, the Rosary (especially the Luminous Mysteries), and litanies for vocations.

Implementation: Our Parish holds 2-hour, weekly adoration sessions,(except on Holy Thursday).

Impact: This practice is believed to provide spiritual support for those in formation, counteract obstacles to vocational calls, and bear fruit in increasing the number of people consecrated to God. 

The Traveling Vocation Chalice will be available to travel from home to home for one week intervals. During the week, the host family will be asked to make a special effort to pray together with emphasis on an increase in vocations to the priesthood and religious life, as well as clear understanding as to the vocations Christ is calling each family member. A binder of prayers will accompany the chalice. Sign up sheet is available after all Masses.

All are invited to pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet every Wednesday and Friday at 3:00pm at the Chapel.
