WHERE AM I CALLED? In discerning the consecrated religious life, people often assume that their vocation will be to a certain work or ministry, but—as awesome and as greatly needed as the “works of our hands” might be—the call is ultimately to an even broader, deeper, and more all-encompassing reality!
In drawing an individual to a religious community, God personally invites the person to enter into a certain charism, a rich new spirit and a whole new way of being and living that not only encompasses the specific ministry of the community but is also a radiant gift and witness to the Church and to the world. Find out more as Mother Mary Richard of the Little Sisters of the Poor tells us about this exciting and enlightening aspect of vocational discernment. Enriched with these insights, you’ll be better prepared to seek the charism that’s the best fit for your heart!
