World Day of Vocations in the Holy Land
May 22, 2026
We are pleased to share a wonderful piece of news from the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem concerning the World Day of Vocations.
On the occasion of Good Shepherd Sunday, the Diocese celebrated with a rich series of spiritual and pastoral activities across its four regions — Jordan, Palestine, Galilee, and Cyprus — including Holy Masses, Eucharistic adoration, youth gatherings, prayer vigils, and personal testimonies, all aimed at encouraging young people to discern God’s call. These events responded to the invitation of His Beatitude Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, who reminded the faithful that vocation is “a gift discovered within,” and that prayer for vocations is a commitment of the entire Christian community.
