As you know, this program asks that people throughout the Archdiocese pray and seek amongst their parish communities those whom they feel have the qualities to serve as priests, religious and deacons in today’s Church. Have you been touched by someone in your parish community whom you feel might have a calling to be a Diocesan Priest, Religious Sister or Deacon? Consider the impact you might have on that person when he or she realizes that you saw those qualities in them and the impact on yourself when a young man you nominated to the “Called by Name” stands before you celebrating the Eucharist!! Nomination forms are available in the parish office. Deadline for submissions to the Vocations Office is March 17, 2012. Fr. Hansoo Park (416) 968-0997.
