Vocations

Are you searching in your life and looking for something more to satisfy your heart? Are you attracted to a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ, to the service of the Church and the poor, to St. Francis and his love of God and all creation?

Perhaps God is calling you to a religious vocation, to be a Capuchin brother or priest! For now, there are some points that may indicate the possibility of a vocation:

  • You are a young man who believes in the teachings and values of the Catholic Church
  • You are single, reasonably healthy and living a celibate life
  • The life of a Capuchin Franciscan friar holds a certain attraction

Beyond these things, however, one must somehow experience a call from the Lord, have a deep desire for God and of growing in friendship with Jesus Christ. He must want to live the Gospel in the spirit of St. Francis, be able to live the vows of poverty, obedience, and chastity and be able to live in community.

Trying to discern a call to the Capuchin way of life takes time and prayer and you cannot do it on your own.
If you are attracted to the idea of being a Capuchin priest or brother then contact us and together we can see what God is saying to you.  Please fill out our inquiry form to help us help you:
