Dear Friend in Christ,

If there’s one thing we’ve learned in the Office of Vocations, it’s the importance of having prayer as the foundation of all that we do. If something is not supported through the prayers of the faithful, it has little to no hope of bearing fruit. In our effort to continue to help young people hear and answer a call to a religious vocation, we know it takes the prayers of many people in order to do that. Though not all are called to this particular vocation, all are encouraged to pray so that the ones whom the Lord is calling hear and say “yes!”

The Fiat Prayer Society is meant to help with this. Our goal is to have more and more of the faithful assist in our vocation efforts through their prayers and sacrifices to help bring forth more “yeses.” This is where the name of the society came from. “Fiat” is the Latin word for Mary’s response to the angel Gabriel at the Annunciation. Fiat means “let it be done” and because of her “yes,” Jesus came into the world. Who better to imitate in following God’s will than the Blessed Mother?

By deciding to be a part of this society, there are no dues and no meetings, simply your promise to join our efforts in praying. This is meant to aid other groups in the Diocese of Green Bay that also faithfully pray for more vocations.
 
We thank you for your willingness to help in this important task. Please know of our prayers for you as well, and God bless you!

In Christ,
The Office of Vocations
