Prayer for the Canonization
of Blessed Junipero Serra

Heavenly Father, we ask you to look
lovingly on the missionary journey of your
faithful servant, Junipero Serra.

His steadfast efforts in founding
nine missions in California and the
conversion of thousands of Native Americans
have inspired the formation and work
of Serra International.

This ministry in Father Serra’s name
is to encourage and affirm vocations
to priesthood and vowed religious life.

We pray that you bless this holy
and courageous missionary
and grant him the ultimate honor
of Sainthood in your heavenly kingdom.

We ask this in the name of Thy Blessed Trinity
and of Mary, Queen of vocations.

Amen
