Through the sacrament of baptism, each person receives a "call" or vocation. and God calls all who are baptized to holiness and to serve. This call to holiness and service is lived out as a single, married, ordained or consecrated person in religious life.
Whenever a young man feels called to the priesthood or a young woman to consecrated religious life, it is appropriate for them to contact their pastor. His guidance will be extremely beneficial to them.
