Journey and Dream
Vocation Weekend
Several young women discerning a religious vocation participated in a weekend experience in January in which they visited three religious communities in St. Louis: the Franciscan Sisters of Our Lady of Perpetual help, the Poor Clare Nuns and the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet.
Sarah, one of the young woman said, “This weekend was a great experience because not only did it give me a look into three different orders, opening my eyes to the wide spectrum of lifestyle and service in the religious life, but it put a real and human face on what it means to serve God in a life of total commitment. Talking with the Sisters and hearing their stories helped me to see the beauty of saying yes to God, and in this process, saying yes to become one's true and best self.”
