Family at the heart of vocations

Diocesan Director of Vocations

  • There are vocations which manifest themselves
  • They must be fostered
  • There are vocations which are not conscious of themselves
  • They must be awakened
  • There are vocations which do not dare manifest themselves
  • They must be found and encouraged
  • There are vocations which are in fear of being lost
  • They must be reassured
  • There are vocations which meet with opposition
  • They must be strengthened
  • There are vocations which are paralysed by poverty
  • They must be helped financially
