"God calls you to make definitive choices, and he has a plan for each of you: to discover that plan and to respond to your vocation is to move toward personal fulfillment"... "Have the courage to "swim against the tide! And also have the courage to be happy."
- Pope Francis
A woman who enters consecrated life chooses to deepen her baptismal commitment by taking vows which emphasize the values of prayer, loving service, and simple living in community with others.
Consecrated women serve the Church and community in many ways, including: youth ministry, homeless and hungry, battered women, education, healthcare, family life and parish pastoral ministry. Some Sisters are totally dedicated to the contemplative life.
If you are experiencing a sense that God is calling you to a religious vocation or if you have a question in regard to religious life or a question regarding discerning God’s call in your life, I can help!
