    I’m only 30 and I’ve felt the call. I still have 5 years to keep learning about my faith and keep praying the Lord to do His will in my life 🙏

    Your videos have been helpful and interesting. My struggle now is discerning whether this interest I have is from true calling or a prideful zeal for accomplishment. Please pray for me as I never want to bring shame to the Church with arrogant posturing.

    Today at the Church gift shop I wanted to choose a medal. I generally go with St Jude. But essence moved my eyes to St Francis. I took my St Francis medal got it blessed. By the way I am a Knight of Columbus. Anywho I feel so proud with my blessed medal. Now what I feel and Think. At the end of Mass the Father Carlos mentions vocations and he mentioned Deaconship… lately I’ve been reading on St Stephen ❤️❤️❤️. I felt moved. Spoke with my wife about it. She says pray about it!! I’m 44 on May 9. Please pray for me.

    Hi Deacon. Would you recommended talking to your pastor first before calling the vocations office? I'm feeling called to the diaconate, but am very nervous that once I make that call or have that talk there is no going back..
