Vocational discernment groups meet to assist young men who are discerning the possibility that God may be calling them to a life of priestly ministry. These groups are designed to explore a priestly vocation with other like-minded men through prayer and sharing vocation stories and experiences. The group meetings aren’t meant to convince anyone that the priesthood is their vocation. They are designed to assist you in discovering if the priesthood is your true vocation and build your relationship with Christ along the way. If you are a faithful, single, Roman Catholic man, between the ages of 18 and 40, and are asking yourself whether God is calling you to be a priest, you are encouraged to attend the discernment meeting which will be held on October 26th, 4PM-6PM at St. Gregory the Great Parish, 4620 Nottingham Way, Hamilton Square. Join Rev. Michael McClane & Rev. Tom Vala, as they share their experiences of the priesthood, followed by prayer and concluding with a great meal and conversation.
