 "Here am I Lord, I come to do Your will."     -  Psalm 40: 8a, 9a

Every day God calls the faithful to serve but for some, that small voice becomes a call that cannot be ignored.  It is a call that can only be satisfied through a sacrifice similar to Mary's; a total, personal and complete offering of one's own life in the service of God.

If you sense a Vocation... Your parish priest is ready to help you discern God's plan for your life.
