Vocations
All People are Called to Serve God
Not all people have the same calling.
Contemplative and Active
Some people are suited to quiet reflective life and others
are more suited to public service. Both are valuable,
complementary and needed lifestyles within the Church. There
are religious vocations and communities that vary from
extremely contemplative to extremely active, with everything
in between.
Ordained/Consecrated and Lay Ministries
Charity Workers, Catechists, Cantors, Liturgists,
Theologians, Iconographers, Youth Coordinators, Ecumenists,
Pastoral Care Givers, Mission Workers, Canonists, Lectors,
Scripture Instructors, loving parents, grandparents, and
children. All vocations start in the home. It is extremely
important to live a good Christian Life. Contact your local
Church to enquire how you can best fit in.
Marriage and Celibacy
Not everyone is called to be married, nor is everyone called
to be single. Although some forms of Religious life such as
monks and nuns require a celibate lifestyle, many others
such as clergy, administrators and missionaries do not.
