What is God saying to my heart ?
Have I prayed and encouraged others to
think about God’s call?”
As Good Shepherd Sunday, or the World Day of Prayer for Vocations, approaches, Brentwood Vocations Promoter, Fr Mark Swires, has sent prayer cards to all parishes, asking them to pray for vocations to the priesthood for our diocese and for those currently training for the priesthood. The prayer card has a picture of Christ the Good Shepherd and a prayer on the reverse side.
He says: “A second collection at all parishes this Sunday will support the education and formation of our seminarians.”
Brentwood Vocations continue to have monthly evenings for enquirers and those who are exploring a vocation.

gladly spend their entire lives to make You
better known and loved.
