What a marvellous opportunity for Grace is being offered by the Church in England this weekend - Invocation 2010 - a vocations discernment event at Oscott College in Birmingham. I still remember the powerful Vocations Exhibition which was held at The Queen's Hall in Leeds in 1966 (just before everything went haywire). I gather that over 300 young people from all over the country are coming to Birmingham today for this event. Support it with loads of prayer!

Our Lady of Walsingham
May England once more be your dowry, O Holy Mother of God
Sub tuum praesidium confugimus, sancta Dei Genitrix; nostras deprecationes ne despicias in necessitatibus, sed a periculis cunctis libera nos semper, Virgo gloriosa et benedicta.
We fly to thy Patronage, O holy Mother of God; despise not our petitions in our necessities, but deliver us always from all dangers, O glorious and blessed Virgin.
Ss Michael, Gabriel and Raphael
May the holy angels be our protection
Holy Michael the Archangel, defend us in the day of battle. Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, thrust down to hell Satan and all the evil spirits who wander the world for the ruin of souls.
Blessed John Paul II
Apostle of the New Evangelisation
Christ offers you his friendship. He gave his life so that those who wish to answer his call can indeed become his friends.
St Paul the Apostle
Fearless evangeliser of the nations
"I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. " Galatians 2.20
St Augustine of Hippo
Anti-Pelagian hero
Fecisti nos ad te et inquietum est cor nostrum donec requiescat in te
You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts find no rest until they rest in you.
St John Mary Baptist Vianney
Role model of priesthood lived in its fulness
Le sacerdoce, c'est l'amour du coeur de Jésus.
The priesthood is the love of the Heart of Jesus.
St Ignatius of Loyola
Taught the way to friendship with Christ through prayer
Take, O Lord, and receive my entire liberty, my memory, my understanding and my whole will. All that I am and all that I possess You have given me: I surrender it all to You to be disposed of according to Your will. Give me only Your love and Your grace; with these I will be rich enough, and will desire nothing more.
St Thomas More
Hero of the Catholic Faith in England
I die the king's faithful servant, but God's first.
St Maximilian Kolbe
A martyr for friendship
No one in the world can change truth. What we can and should do is seek truth and serve it when we have found it. The real conflict is within. Beyond the armies of occupation and the hectacombs of the extermination camps, two irreconcilable armies lie in the depth of every soul. And of what use are the victories of the battlefield if we are defeated in our innermost selves?
St Aelred of Rievaulx
Teacher in the ways of friendship
Friendship is a stage bordering upon that perfection which consists in that love and knowledge of God, so that man from a friend of his fellow man becomes a friend of God, according to the words of the Saviour in the Gospel: I will not now call you servants, but my friends.
St Justin, Martyr
Proto-Apologist for the Faith
"But straightaway a flame was kindled in my soul; and a love of the prophets, and of those men who are friends of Christ, possessed me...If, then, you have any concern for yourself, and if you are eagerly looking for salvation, and if you believe in God, you may-since you are not indifferent to the matter - become acquainted with the Christ of God, and, after being initiated, live a happy life."
St Margaret Clitherow
She died for the priesthood and the Mass together with her unborn child
I ground my faith upon Jesus Christ, and by Him I steadfastly believe to be saved, as is taught in the Catholic Church through all Christendom, and promised to remain with Her unto the world's end, and hell gates shall not prevail against it: and by God's assistance I mean to live and die in the same faith.
St Therese of Lisieux
The strong woman - spouse of Christ
Oh my God, You have surpassed all my expectations.
St John Henry Card Newman
Friendship with Christ means conversion and change of heart
Cor ad Cor loquitur.
Heart speaks to heart.
