  Vocation Discernment

 

  To help young adults understand the vocation as primarily a call to holiness and Christian maturity lived through single or married life, the  

  priesthood, the diaconate, or religious life.

  As discussed earlier, many men and women respond to God's call of vocation during young adulthood. Families, parishes, military chaplains,  

  and campus ministers can help young people discern their vocations. If you are discerning your vocation we highly encourage that young adults: 

  • Contact the Office for Vocations for more information on how to begin the process of discernment.
  • Attend seminars, workshops, and overnight retreats in a spiritual setting to discuss vocation discernment.
  • Seek the guidance of a pastor, mentor, spiritual director to assist you in the process.
  • Join young adult groups focused on discerning their call in life.
  • Consider taking a sabbatical year to volunteer community service.
    (For more information on service projects check our event calendar often and/or contact your local church for parish service project events).

  The following links are provided as a resource for you to utilize as a guide for your vocation discernment.
