Portsmouth Vocations

12/06/2026

June is dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus—a symbol of a love that never tires. When you give your whole self to His call, you find a life of profound purpose, fraternity, and true freedom. Are you ready to let the Lord guide your path?

Please pray that priests remain steadfast in their vocations, grow in spiritual holiness, and draw daily strength from the heart of Christ especially today on the Feast of the Sacred Heart. Lord, send us many holy priests

The heart of a priest is held in the Sacred Heart’s embrace. Each vocation is a call from the Heart to the heart. If you find yourself thinking of Him, wanting to be with Him, desiring to bring Him to others, to be His Heart for the faithful- consider how you can best serve Him

June is a beautiful time to listen to that whisper in your heart. As Pope Leo reminds us, a vocation is "the discovery of God's free gift that blossoms in the depths of our hearts". Stop looking for a massive sign and start a conversation with the Lord. What is He calling you to?

"A priest is not a priest for himself. He is not a priest for himself; he is a priest for you. After God, the priest is everything." -St. John Vianney

The primary purpose of an ordained priest is to offer the sacrifice of the Mass and consecrate the Eucharist. The feast of Corpus Christi serves as an ideal time to honour, pray for, and foster vocations to the priesthood.

When it comes to giving of ourselves to others, even to God, we can be afraid. Yet contemplate the self-gift of Jesus in the Eucharist. He becomes accessible to us, so we can love Him. In return, can we place ourselves in His hands, so that He can help us to give to others?
