O Virgin Mary, to you we commend our young people, in particular the youth called to closely follow your Son. You know the difficulties, the struggles, the obstacles they must face. Assist them to utter their ‘yes’ to the divine call, as you did at the invitation of the Angel.
Draw them near to your heart so that they can understand with you the beauty and the joy that awaits them when the Omnipotent calls them into his intimacy, to make them witnesses of His Love and make them able to inspire the Church with their consecration.
Obtain that we may see even in our own days the wonders of the mysterious action of the Holy Spirit.
O Mary, Mother of Vocations, hear our prayer.
