Vocations
Every person is called by God
to do some work in the world. We grow in holiness by being attentive to
His call, and by responding to it as best we can. The Catholic Church
teaches that Almighty God calls each baptized person to one of four
vocations: marriage, single life, ordained ministry, or the consecrated
life. Each vocation has its own dignity and can be a pathway to
holiness. At the same time, Christian tradition has always upheld the
special dignity of consecrated celibacy. In light of this, St. Peter’s
makes a special effort to promote vocations to the Christian Brothers
and to the diocesan priesthood. St. Peter’s is proud of its many
graduates who have answered Christ’s call to serve the Church as
brothers, priests or deacons. The links presented on this page should
assist young people to discern Christ’s call.
