Do you feel called to give more, to be more?

You are not alone!

A vocation is a gift from God, a plan or “calling” from our heavenly Father. Vocations are all about love. Each vocation begins with His love for us. In your own way, he has created you to work with him in his plan of salvation. This love involves first His total gift of Himself to you, and then in response your total gift of self to Him.

As the Office of Vocations, we are happy support you in your discernment of your vocation in any way that we can! Know that you are not alone!

As you take this time to discern your vocation, we invite you to attend an event, meet our current seminarians, use our resources, and reach out to us or your parish priest for support. Be assured of our prayers for you as you pursue God’s will in your life.

Meet Our Seminarians

Through prayer and reflection, I felt that God might be calling me to a new vocation in my life. I felt a desire to serve the Lord with my life and I had a desire to help people, which I felt these opportunities did not exist in my career. I had a continuous hunger to increase my knowledge of the Catholic faith and help spread this knowledge to others. Also, through conversations with priests, I was able to overcome personal reluctancies and realize that I could be a priest, if that is what God truly desires for my life.
