My fellow parishioners kept their eyes open for those whom the Lord called (and does call) - they're very easy to spot, really, if you're looking - and they actively told these individuals to pray about their vocation.

Now, by God's grace, I will be a good priest. Perhaps this is a good topic for another post.Rev. Daren J.
