So much for the "shortage of priests" hype. Now people can stop looking at every single Catholic male without pressuring them over a calling they don't have (hint hint). LOL.

I haven't heard much about late vocations to the religious life for women. What is up with that?

I have two sons who BOTH have an interest in the priesthood. I am considering joining the diaconate program. Pray for us, please.

We talked to our pastor and he told us most parents arent supportive about it when their sons tell them they want to be a priest, said Jeffrey Alello I have been shocked by the responses of people when I have spoken about my sons' exploration of vocations. Even from Catholics. What the heck is wrong with these people?

Thanks for the ping. Great reading!
Btw, I notice a high proportion of ex-attorneys! Not surprising, I suppose.

It's the little devil in them. Being called to Holiness is a gift from God.
