Quotes about Vocational

The congregation is the pastor's place for developing vocational holiness. It goes without saying that it is the place of ministry: we preach the word and administer the sacraments, we give pastoral care and administer the community life, we teach and we give spiritual direction. But it is also the place in which we develop virtue, learn to love, advance in hope — become what we preach.

If vocational holiness is to be anything more than a pious wish, pastors must dive to the ocean depths of prayer.
