Did you know there are special events hosted by the diocese and religious orders during the year to help you discern a life as a deacon, priest, or religious? There are retreats and visits held at seminaries and convents allowing you to partake in prayer and discussions to think about God’s call on your life. There is no obligation, just a time away from other distractions to consider what Jesus is asking of you. Ask your religion teacher or one of the chaplains if you have an interest in attending.
