It's National Vocation Awareness Week, a week (since 1976) "dedicated to promote vocations to the priesthood, diaconate and consecrated life through prayer and education, and to renew our prayers and support for those who are considering one of these particular vocations." In this Random Nun Clip from an Ask Sister podcast, we discuss how people can sometimes view discernment with skepticism, though it may come from a place of caring.
In the full episode, we answer other questions about becoming a nun, including when to share your discernment with friends and family.
GSR shares clips from our friends at A Nun’s Life Ministry, which has a live prayer podcast on Monday (excluding holidays) at 4 p.m. Central Time and other live podcasts throughout the month: “Ask Sister,” “Motherhouse Road Trip” and “In Good Faith.” Dates and times for the full, live episodes are listed on their program schedule.
