Our mission is to promote holy vocations and vocation awareness within the Parish.  Our emphasis is on "Home Grown Parish Vocations" for the Priesthood, Sisterhood and Deaconate. 

In addition, we work to bring families and the clergy together in prayer through vocation programs and/or the Adoration Chapel.  

June 19, 2009 to June 21, 2010 has been declared the "Year of the Priest." And this year, we invite you to assist and be a part of the special vocation programs we are sponsoring.  We also request your prayers for our Parish Priests and for new vocations.  As you know, all vocations start with prayer!
