“ I am just a speck of dust, but I want to make my dwelling in the shadow of the sanctuary with the prisoner of love. Ah! My soul longs for the host. I love Him and I want nothing more. It is the hidden God who attracts me. I am the Atom of Jesus.”

-from St. Therese of Lisieux’s poem The Atom of Jesus– Host

Vocations Chalice Praying for vocations is the most powerful way to support vocations. A vocation is a call from the Holy Spirit, a gift from God that is nurtured in prayer. When we pray for vocations, we lift up to our Father those men and women whom He is calling to follow Him in a very special way. This is a great way to pray together as a family. If you are interested in hosting the Vocations Chalice in your home, please contact the Parish Office at 865-7385 and leave a message for Ann Krom.
