Podcasts by Vows, Vocations,
What is a your vocation? Marriage? Religious Life? The Ministerial Priesthood? The generous single life? Each of us is called to the primary vocation of holiness- to know, love, and serve God and to live our eternal destiny with God in joy; yet each of us is called to live out this universal call to holiness in a unique way. Tune in to "Vows, Vocations, & Promises: Discerning the Call of Love" to explore with Dr. Mary Anne Urlakis and her guests the many ways faithful Catholics strive to answer the call of Love.
