Diocese of Rapid City Prayer for Vocations
Heavenly Father,
We beg you for an increase in religious vocations and holy marriages in the Diocese of Rapid City. Look upon us with favor and choose from our homes those who are needed for your work. Send your spirit to strengthen us and give us open hearts and minds ready to say “Yes” when you call.

Amen.
