Are you asking, "How do I KNOW my vocation? It is during times of prayer that you will discover the answers to these questions. In prayer, you will grow closer to the Lord and you will find meaning and purpose in your life. The tug of a calling to a vocation in the church requires both direct honesty and individual attention. Vocations do not come out of stamped molds; on the contrary, we are all unique, possessing a wide variety of talents.
