Whats the call?

Many Catholics associate ”being called” with a vocation to the priesthood or religious life. However all Catholics, lay and ordained, are called to serve others.

A year ago I wrote a piece on the same subject that appeared in The Catholic Spirit, newspaper of the Diocese of Metuchen, N.J. Unfortunately, that piece is not available online.

In the Archdiocese of Louisville, Ky., Archbishop Joseph E. Kurtz spoke to young people about their calling as Catholics at an Ignite Your Torch youth conference. The Record has more on the event in this recently published story.

The Servant Leadership Center in Toledo, Ohio, is a place where ”people who are passionate about justice are invited to explore their gifts and discern where God is calling them.” The Catholic Chronicle, diocesan newspaper in Toledo, published this profile of the center.
