Austin Vocations

Austin Vocations “For I know well the plans I have in mind for you.” - Jeremiah 29:11 🕊️ Welcome to the Austin Vocations Facebook fan page.

This resource was developed to help respond to this stirring plea from the Heart of Christ. In its pages you’ll find information about priesthood and consecrated life in the Diocese of Austin, tools for prayer and discernment, and pages that introduce you to our seminarians in priestly formation. This is a great time to be a priest or consecrated sister or brother! The Diocese of Austin is buildin

g a culture of vocations. Every vocation is discovered through the encounter with Jesus Christ. Our goal is that of Pope Benedict XVI when he said, “It is essential that every local Church become more sensitive and attentive to the pastoral care of vocations, helping children and young people in particular at every level of family, parish and associations – as Jesus did with his disciples – to grow into a genuine and affectionate friendship with the Lord, cultivated through personal and liturgical prayer; to grow in familiarity with the sacred Scriptures and thus to listen attentively and fruitfully to the word of God; to understand that entering into God’s will does not crush or destroy a person, but instead leads to the discovery of the deepest truth about ourselves; and finally to be generous and fraternal in relationships with others, since it is only in being open to the love of God that we discover true joy and the fulfillment of our aspirations.” – Pope Benedict XVI, Message for the 48th World Day of Prayer for Vocations

Your restless heart is a sign that you’re human and that you were made for more.
More than settling.
More than simply following the path of least resistance.
More than anything less than God’s plan for you.
That restlessness is a compass, pointing toward the deepest desires of your heart.
But will you let the Lord lead you? Will you ASPIRE?

Exactly one week ago, on the Memorial of St. Augustine, we launched ASPIRE! Whether you are seeking holiness, discerning your vocation, or already living it out, ASPIRE is for you. The ASPIRE Formation Series will help you grow in friendship with Christ and follow where He leads your restless heart. Receive practical reflections, encouraging guidance, and actionable steps right in your inbox each week. To register and learn more, visit https://na2.hubs.ly/H07Fx010.
