The Call to Serve God

How do I know?

Many people wonder how they will know that they are being called to serve God. Often, you simply feel a love and call to ministry.

I am afraid.

Many who consider the path to the religious order are afraid of the reaction of their friends or family. As you progress through your discernment process, you may want to talk to your parish priest or a member of a religious community of brothers or sisters. He will most likely be delighted to share his discernment path with you to help you negotiate this time.
