Let us pray for vocations: “We entreat you, O Lord, to raise up from our families many priests and deacons, religious sisters and brothers, who will love you with their whole hearts and will gladly spend their entire lives to make you known and loved by all. We pray for all those who are discerning your call in their lives, O Lord: help them to rest in your promises, knowing you are with them. Bless our diocesan seminarians Huy Le, Mischa Taillon, John Paul Wasan, and Matthew Witzaney, and surround them with your grace and inspiration as they discern their call.”
(World Day of Prayer for Vocations April 26)

The diocesan Sts. Benedict and Scholastica Formation Program is now accepting applications for both men and women candidates for the year 2026-2027.
This program aims to form young adult Catholics in pursuing holiness while living in the world. It is open to young adults – both women and men, students or working – either for a residential or non-residential program beginning in the fall.
The program includes human formation, intellectual formation, and pastoral formation, focused on personal holiness and community life, which includes daily prayer, Mass, Liturgy of the Hours, apostolic work, faith-sharing, faith formation, spiritual direction, silent retreats, and missionary discipleship.
The Sts. Benedict and Scholastica program can serve as a period of vocation preparation for priesthood, religious life, or any form of lay vocation and ministry.
