The Charismatic Renewal Service Committee (CRSC) is supporting the Arlington Diocese seminarians who are currently in formation to serve God’s Church and His People.

As they strive towards their goal of ordination, pray for fortification in their studies, a greater outpouring of the graces of the Holy Spirit, and a protection from Our Blessed Mother. We also pray for an increase in vocations to serve in the religious life. We ask that you lift up in prayer daily the following seminarians.

Daily Prayer for Our Seminarians

O Lord Jesus, great High Priest, we entrust our seminarians to You. Enlighten the faculty in their guidance, spiritual directors in molding them, and professors in instructing them. Lead our seminarians daily in Your footsteps; so that they may become priests who are models of purity, teachers of wisdom, and heroes of sacrifice. Fill them with humility and love for God and man. Transform them into apostles of Your glory and sanctifiers of souls. Holy Mary, Queen of the Clergy, pray for them and obtain for us many more.

Daily Prayer for Vocations to the Religious and Consecrated Life

Heavenly Father, Your divine Son taught us to pray to the Lord of the harvest to send laborers into His vineyard. We earnestly beg You to bless our Diocese and our world with many priests who will love You fervently, and gladly and courageously spend their lives in service to Your Son's Church under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. We pray that their lives may be always centered on our Eucharistic Lord; that they be always faithful to the Holy Father; and that they may be devoted sons of Mary, our Mother, in making You known and loved; and that all may attain Heaven. Bless our families and our children and choose from our homes those whom You desire for this holy work. We ask this in Jesus' name. Amen.
