Vocations
Awareness is a subcommittee of Spiritual Life and Adult Education.
The responsibilities
of this committee are to educate parishioners on the four vocations:
- Religious
sister or brother
- Ordained
priesthood
- Married life
- Single lay person
Activities which
stimulate discussion and thought on this topic are promoted in the
parish.
"The whole Christian community shares the responsibility for
fostering vocations. The first step is to live in a full Christian
manner. Families with a lively spirit of faith, love and reverence
contribute greatly to this work. Spiritually active parishes, where
people take a full part, help to promote vocations." (from
the CCCB Ordo, 2008-09)
Vocations Awareness
week is usually held in April.
The Archdiocese website, Vocations
section also has more information.
