A few days before Hurricane Harvey hit us in Houston, I received the final version of Vocation Ministry’s promo video, and I am so excited to share it with you. You will hear from Fr. Victor, who invited me to that fateful meeting about "priests and such" SIX years ago this month, and a few sisters, one is Sister Catherine Thomas, DSMME!
BIG Holy Spirit Moment: I attended Mass at St. Cecilia at our normal time and recognized a religious Sister Catherine Thomas, Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist from Ann Arbor, MI, in the pew behind me. While speaking with her, I almost asked if she would come to the shoot for the video and Mass but did not want to intrude on her few days with her family. Fast forward to my sitting in the pew during the shoot, 20 miles away from St. Cecilia, lamenting the fact that the religious sister we asked to come to the shoot this morning did not come (not her fault). I look up to see Sr. Catherine Thomas coming out of Adoration!!! A real answer to prayer!!!! God bless you, Sister!
I hope that others feel inspired to promote vocations to the priesthood, religious life, and sacramental marriage at their parishes through this video. Share with others who you would like to help you do this vital work at your parish. Let’s continue to create a culture of vocations.
Special Thanks go to Knights of Columbus Council 13357 and Serra International Foundation for the funding for this video.
