PRAYER TO
|
All who have been baptized are consecrated persons. However, religious brothers and sisters live a state of consecrated life by the vows of poverty, chastity and obedience. Community life, prayer and living under the authority of the church are all part of the life of consecrated religious. All are also involved in some form of apostolate or ministry, whether they are contemplative or active. There are various charisms associated with different congregations of religious. These can be types of spirituality or a particular apostolate.
The quest for discovering God's call for your life should be paramount. Nothing is more important. There can be no doubt that a person's earthly fulfillment and ultimate happiness greatly depend on properly discerning God's will, especially in terms of the particular vocation a man or woman may choose. VocationSearch is designed to help you discover more than 150 Catholic religious communities with its unique searchable database.
The realization that God is asking you to follow Him in consecrated life is made through active participation in the Church, prayer, receiving the sacraments, spiritual reading, and service in the Church. It may be an idea you have considered for a long time or one that has come to you during a significant moment in your life. These are prayers and resources to assist in discerning God’s plan for you.
