Vocation stories
"Religious are often asked the question,
“Why did you join religious
life?” This collection of stories will give you an insight into some
of the many and varied responses.
The first story we present is
all about Mother Scholastica,
the first Disciple of the Divine Master. We hope that one day she will
be recognized by the Church as a Saint. Until then, she is our own saint
with a small “s” and even now, she is a powerful intercessor for all of
us. Her life inspires us to live more fully our vocation and mission in
the Church; her words echo in the hearts of each of us as we seek to
make her words a reality in our own lives: ““Lord, you alone are
enough for me!”
Jesus calls each of us by name. As you reflect on the call of the
various sisters and the possibilities that are offered to you also, may
you too feel called to live your own vocation and experience Jesus
calling you to a closer and more intimate relationship with Him.
With every blessing and assuring you of our prayers
in our daily Eucharistic Adoration as you too live out your vocation, or
maybe are still searching to understand God's call for you in your
life."
