Has God stopped Calling? No, more accurately, with all that the world has to offer, we get distracted and rather than a shortage of calls, we run into the problem of a shortage of young people willing to listen to the call.

Why do we assume that God is not actively working in people’s lives…and furthermore that God could not possibly use us as his messengers to others? This week from January 10-15 is National Vocation Awareness week. What better a time to practice a little evangelization; to practice being God’s messengers in the lives of those who most need to hear His voice? Think about it. What if you are supposed to be the “one person” that makes an impact in someone’s life; that one person that a future priest in our diocese will mention again and again as he tells his own story of God’s action in his life? Who is the young man you know who just needs a little nudge from his friend or family member? Step out on the ledge and be God’s messenger this week.
This April, Father Jarett will once again be accompanying young men from our diocese to Conception Seminary College for a Discernment Weekend. The weekend, April 17-19, 2010, is sponsored by the seminary and is available to high school juniors and seniors as well college-aged men.
