Vocations

As the date of his priestly ordination (Aug. 16) approaches, Deacon Alexander Pumphrey, MIC is asked by everyone he meets, "Are you ready?"

We are all called by God to a vocation, whether to consecrated life and serving Him; to the single life; or to marriage – we are all called to holiness. Father Donald Calloway, MIC, explains what a vocation is, and how to hear God telling you what your vocation might be. Then hear the story of Burke Masters, who thought his vocation was to be a Major League baseball player, but then God threw him a curveball.

Episode 127 with Kevin Wells
Kevin Wells, a former sportswriter in Major League Baseball, has authored a remarkable and timely book called "Priests We Need to Save the Church." In his book, Kevin delves into a significant personal struggle, as well as the advice given by his uncle, Msgr. Thomas Wells, during that difficult time. The book further evolves in response to the Church crisis, as Kevin attempts to address the question, "What kind of priests do we need to save the Church?"

In this Year of Consecrated Life, console the Heart of Jesus by performing the great work of mercy of interceding for vocations.
