Vocation Matters – Thought for the week – The Most Holy Trinity Sunday
"Make disciples of all the nations"
Discipleship is where it's at! Seeking Christ, finding Christ, loving Christ, serving Christ. Living-out the Gospel will
set me apart. By saying 'yes' to his loving invitation, I will gradually, by his grace, become him. Imagine what a
difference I can make!
"INVOCATION”
An exciting and challenging festival for young adults brave enough to consider God's call in their lives. Opportunities
for excellent keynote talks, food, good company among like-minded people, Mass, Adoration, Confessions. If
you're aged 18 - 35 and are prepared to think seriously about what it is that God may be asking of you, this is the
event for you. This is to be held in the grounds of Oscott College, Birmingham from Friday 6 July – Sunday 8 July
2012. For more information and reservations please go to www.invocation.org.uk or contact Fr Terry, Vocation
Director, on vocations@dabnet.org. You know you want to!"
