Priesthood & Religious life

Are you considering the Priesthood or Religious life? We are here to help.

Do you feel called to discern if God is calling you to be a Priest or Religious Brother/Sister?

Pope Francis said this on the 51st World Day of Prayer for Vocations: "I turn now to those who are well disposed to listen to the voice of Christ that rings out in the Church and to understand what their own vocation is. I invite you to listen to and follow Jesus, and to allow yourselves to be transformed interiorly by his words, which “are spirit and life” (Jn 6:62). Mary, the Mother of Jesus and ours, also says to us: “Do whatever he tells you” (Jn 2:5). It will help you to participate in a communal journey that is able to release the best energies in you and around you. A vocation is a fruit that ripens in a well cultivated field of mutual love that becomes mutual service, in the context of an authentic ecclesial life. No vocation is born of itself or lives for itself. A vocation flows from the heart of God and blossoms in the good soil of faithful people, in the experience of fraternal love. Did not Jesus say: “By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another” (Jn 13:35)?"

Reach out to Father Peter to discuss this more with your parish pastor or reach out to Mundelein Seminary to learn more about priestly vocations for the Archdiocese of Chicago.
