PRAYERS FOR VOCATIONS
FIRST THURSDAYS
Collect: Send, we bessech Thee, O Lord, labourers into Thy vineyard, in order that both the precepts of Thy only-begotten Son may be perpetually observed and that the sacrifice may be everywhere renewed.
Secret: Make perfect the tribute we offer, as a sacrament for the vitality of Thy people, so that ministers, having been increased, in the circling of Thine altar, may bring together prayers and sacrifices to Thee.
Post-Communion: Having been filled with the heavenly mysteries, we beseech Thee, Almighty God, that Thou wouldst deign to increase Thy ministers in both number and sanctifying charity.

PLEASE PRAY FOR FATHER GRESSER
Our chaplain, Fr Gresser FSSP, had a very serious accident on Saturday, the 18th of September. A gas heater blew up while he was lighting it and burnt over 35% of his body. His left arm, right shoulder, chest and face suffered burns of various degrees. He also suffered fire inhalation injuries.
After being placed on the critical list, he made a remarkable recovery, that after six days he can now walk and talk a little.
Fr Gresser needs our prayers, as do his family. Fr Wong and the other FSSP priests in Sydney, and all those parishioners who are closely associated with the administration of the chaplaincy also need your prayers.
Our Lady Mary, the Blessed Virgin Mother of the Church, pray for him.
St Lawrence, pray for him.
[For pastoral emergencies please contact Fr Duncan Wong or one of our priests at Girraween. Fr Aidan Wee will assist Fr Wong. Fr Wong can no longer accept Mass stipends for next three months.]

Father Gresser is grateful for all your prayers and is praying for all of you. Please keep up the prayers.
