Open to a vocation?

Two live-in weekends for young men open to the possibility of a religious vocation are available in the next couple of weeks.
From Friday, Oct. 30 to Sunday, Nov. 1, the Oblates of Mary Immaculate will be hosting a vocation weekend. Called Weekend with Oblates, the event begins on Friday at 7 p.m. and concludes on Sunday at 2 p.m.
The weekend is open to any men aged 18 – 40 who may be considering life as a religious brother or a priest. The weekend retreat is being held at Sacred Heart Parish on 525 Campbell Ave, Vancouver.
The event is free and if you wish to register, please contact Father Ken Forster at 604-254-3100, or Father Ken Thorson at 613-884-4144. You can also register by email at vocations@omilacombe.ca. But hurry; registration closes on Oct. 24.

In addition, from Nov. 6 to 8, a Vocation Live-In will be held for boys or young men interested in the priesthood or the consecrated life. It's at the Seminary of Christ the King in Mission. For more information, call 604-826-8715.
