The Vocations Apostolate Ministry was formed with the intention identify, foster, encourage, and support vocations through prayer, invitation, education, and action.
Our ministry invites others to join us in prayer supporting those discerning religious vocations, especially most holy priesthood.

We provide vocation materials and plan events that move our support of vocations into action.
 

We act by encouraging families to promote vocations in the home,  involving parishioners through announcements and vocation-centric prayers, hosting diocesan discernment dinners for young men inquiring about the journey to priesthood, and sending cards to the seminarians (birthday) and priests (anniversary of ordination) of our diocese.

 

Please consider supporting all our priests, seminarians and deacons by following the daily Vocations Prayer Calendar or picking up a Prayer Support for Vocations Home Kit!  Both are available in the Parish vestibule.

Digital Prayer Calendar available for viewing or download on Diocesan website:

Invitation to Pray for Vocations

Have you ever considered what our Church would look like
without the Priests, Deacons, Sisters & Dedicated Religious
who instruct, support and serve us throughout our faith journey?

St. Joseph Vocations Apostolate Ministry encourages you to consider
spending an hour before the Blessed Sacrament in Adoration,
asking God to plant and nurture the seeds of religious vocation
in our parish and throughout the world!

If your heart moves you, please pray for one of our Diocesan
Seminarians, fill out an “I prayed for you” card and mail it to them,
sharing your support and encouragement.  Cards and envelopes are
available by the door nearest the Adoration Chapel.
