National Vocations Awareness Week: Nov. 3-9
National Vocation Awareness Week (NVAW) is an annual week-long celebration of the Catholic Church in the United States dedicated to promote vocations to the priesthood, diaconate and consecrated life through prayer and education, and to renew our prayers and support for those who are considering one of these particular vocations.
During Vocation Awareness Week, please pray that young people in today’s culture will hear and respond to God’s call. And do your part to encourage them to consider the priesthood and consecrated life!
