Since my last post on the "Pray for Seminarians by name" initiative, Brad Watkins, Assistant to the Director of Vocations in the Diocese of Raleigh, United States, has been in touch. They have given out 15,000 cards in the past year asking people to pray for the seminarians by name. He also asked if I could plug his own blog, Roman Catholic Vocations, which I am more than happy to do. The blog has posts relevant to anyone interested in vocations to the priestly or religious life (so don't be surprised at photos of nuns!)
Mark, over at Rise and Pray, is involved with a couple more vocations blogs - Traditional Vocations Blog (for men and women) and FSSP Vocations Scotland and Ireland (an unofficial site which has great admiration for the work of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter.) Mark has more details asking for people to help HERE.
Thanks for plugging these, Mac! :)

We hope to set up something similar for our seminarians in Glasgow. We only just launched prayingforpriests.com, so there's a lot of work to be done!
ReplyDeleteThe more prayers, the better, right?!
