The Office of Vocations

The primary purpose of the Vocations office is to assist individuals who are discerning their personal vocation and state in life. This involves helping men in their preliminary and ongoing discernment of a vocation to the diocesan priesthood, as well as to assist women and men in their initial discernment of the call to the consecrated life.
