MESSAGE OF HIS HOLINESS POPE FRANCIS ON THE OCCASION OF THE 53rd WORLD DAY OF PRAYER FOR VOCATIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dear Brothers and Sisters, <\/i><\/p>\n

It is my great hope that, during the course of this Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy<\/a>, all the baptized may experience the joy of belonging to the Church and rediscover that the Christian vocation, just like every particular vocation, is born from within the People of God, and is a gift of divine mercy. The Church is the house of mercy, and it is the \u201csoil\u201d where vocations take root, mature and bear fruit.<\/p>\n

For this reason, on the occasion of the 53rd<\/sup> World Day of Prayer for Vocations, I invite all of you to reflect upon the apostolic community, and to give thanks for the role of the community in each person\u2019s vocational journey. In the Bull of Indiction for the Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy<\/a>, I recalled the words of the venerable Saint Bede, describing the call of Saint Matthew: \u201cMiserando atque eligendo<\/i>\u201d (Misericordiae Vultus<\/a><\/i>, 8). The Lord\u2019s merciful action forgives our sins and opens us to the new life which takes shape in the call to discipleship and mission. Each vocation in the Church has its origin in the compassionate gaze of Jesus. Conversion and vocation are two sides of the same coin, and continually remain interconnected throughout the whole of the missionary disciple\u2019s life.<\/p>\n
