A site of information and links for vocational information on Religious Orders and Dioceses in Australia. There are many Vocation Choices for Catholics in the Australian Church. This site is an initiative of Catholic Vocation Ministry Australia , supported by the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference and the Australian Conference of Leaders of Religious Institutes.
Every Christian person has a vocation.
Our word 'vocation' comes from the Latin 'vocatio' which means 'a calling'. Through baptism each person is called by God to become more like Jesus Christ- to share his life and love, to grow in knowledge and love of God, and to place our personal gifts and talents at the service of others. We come to know and appreciate the vocation to which God calls each person through prayer and reflection, and through speaking with others about our hopes and desires, our gifts and talents. May serve the parish community as lector, catechist, musician, liturgist, minister of Eucharist, in care and welfare groups, and on committees.
