Vocations Today What does vocation mean?
One definition is God’s call to be the holy people we were created and baptized to be. Some people live out their call to holiness in priesthood, religious life (sister/brother), marriage and family, or life as a single layperson. People may be ordained or lay ministers in the Church, or bring their Christian values into secular careers. The various ministries and ways of life enable people to extend God’s self-giving love to one another.
