HOW DO I KNOW IF GOD IS CALLING ME?
Trying to discern a call to the Capuchin way of life takes time and prayer
and you cannot do it on your own. If you are attracted to the idea of being
a Capuchin priest or brother then contact us and together we can see what
God is saying to you.
For now, there are some points that may indicate the possibility of a vocation:
- You are a young man who believes in the teachings
and values of the Catholic Church
- You are single, reasonably healthy and living a celibate
life
- The life of a Capuchin Franciscan friar holds a certain
attraction
If you would like to know more, please e-mail us at vocations@capuchinfriars.org.au
(If you do not live in Australia, then contact your local Capuchins; they should
be in the phone book. If you have difficulty locating them then e-mail us and
we will endeavour to help you.)
