Fr. Justin’s Prayer Groups for Vocations The journey of the small Groups of Prayer for Vocations is a journey that began in June 1997, in concomitance with the first years of priestly life of Fr. Vittorio Zeccone, sdv. In those days, Fr. Vittorio was the animator of the aspirants at the Vocationary in Pianura and, he, giving voice and concreteness to various lay members that wanted to pray in constant and committed way for vocations, began assembling them, first in the chapel of the third floor of the Vocationary and later, at the crypt in the same Vocationary. Fr. Vittorio proposed that they gather themselves every week in the small cenacles of their houses for prayer for vocations. Conscious that the Church of the third millennium has need of pastors always more prepared and courageous, the small groups humbly want to see themselves as apostles of prayer, ever-burning flames to support the perseverance of the called ones and those who may be called in the future to the priesthood and to consecrated life. The small groups are structured in a simple manner: Spiritual Assistant (a Vocationist Priest), Coordinators (can be a consecrated or a lay member who has the task to open other small groups, to transmit the communications of the Spiritual Assistant and the monthly informative paper called Grazie) and the Group-leader (the person that welcomes the group in his/her own residence and has the task to call them to prayer, keeping alive, at every moment of the year, these moments of prayer) (cf. Acts of the 13th General Chapter, p.311ff.). For information and assistance in forming Fr. Justin’s Prayer Groups contact Fr. Vittorio Zeccone, Tel. 340 36110300. |
