Support for Vocations

Help promote vocations to the ministerial priesthood and consecrated religious life. 

The priestly and religious vocations constitute a missionary journey that involves all Catholic faithful.

Some support the mission by going (Priests and Religious), while others go on the mission by supporting (Lay faithful).

Would you like to support the mission by training a Seminarian or Reverend Sister?

Seminarians are future priests and their training is very dear to the church. When properly trained, they impact our lives, our spiritual development, our society and our world as future priests. 

Reverend Sisters, as religious and in a special way, as missionaries who amidst uncertainties but with great trust in the Lord under the maternal protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary our Mother and the Apostles, dare to follow Christ wherever he leads within and outside their shores.
