Vocation Directors

 
The idea of vocation is central to the Christian belief that God has created each person with gifts and talents oriented toward specific purposes and a way of life. A divine call to service in the Church and humanity through consecration as a religious or ordination to priestly ministry is a life changing decision. Vocation directors have a tremendous role and responsibility! This page is an ongoing exchange of ideas and resources to aid you in service or ministry.
