World Day of Prayer will be observed on Sunday, May 8, 2022 also known as "Good Shepherd Sunday." The purpose of this day is to publicly fulfill the Lord's instruction to, "Pray to the Lord of the harvest to send laborers into his harvest" (Mt 9:38; Lk 10:2). Please pray that young men and women hear and respond generously to whatever the Lord's call may be. Pray especially that they may be called to the priesthood, diaconate, religious life, societies of apostolic life or secular institutes.
