Parish Vocation Ministry Resources

Resources

In 2026 Parish Vocation Ministry Teams are asked to focus their efforts on attaining the following goals:

• Find interested high school aged boys and encourage participation in our diocesan summer Quo Vadis vocations retreat. (July 7-9, 2026)  
  • Quo Vadis Page
  • Quo Vadis Flier
• Plan, schedule, and facilitate with your pastor, a Eucharistic Holy Hour for Vocations in your parish and invite a priest and seminarian to attend and share their vocation stories. Or make a weekend out of it and involve the youth group or Confirmation students in a mini discernment retreat and Mass.  (I'm almost always available for this.)
  • A Sample Holy Hour
• Create a plan with your pastor and Parish Catechetical Leader (PCL), to create a meaningful/educational program in the parish/classrooms to celebrate/educate about all vocations during Vocation Awareness week. (November 1-7, 2026.)
  • Vocation Awareness Resources
