It's National Vocation Awareness Week

National Vocation Awareness Week is November 6-12, 2022. This week provides an invitation to reflect on the idea of vocation, which comes from the Latin vocare, “to call.” No matter which vocation we are called to live as an expression of God’s love in the world, everyone is called to holiness. How are we progressing along that path, and how we may be called to pray for, support and encourage others in exploring their vocations?

"My Soul Rejoices in the Lord"

“Mary’s words summarize the experience of all those, who, like her, have heard God’s call and responded with a prompt and joyful ‘yes!’”

"We're all trying to find where God is leading us in this life...the first step is holiness."

"God is alive, he loves us, he has a great plan for us, and when he calls us to participate in the salvation of souls, he gives 100 to 1."
