Tell your friends! The USCCB recently came out with an awesome vocational video called “Fishers of Men.” It captures many aspects of the priestly duty without downplaying the vocation of the priest. In fact, it powerfully and properly elevates the priesthood to show its divine origin. The USCCB website says,
"The Bishops’ Committee on Vocations presents a program for priests to actively invite men to consider a vocation to the priesthood. This program is entitled Priestly Life and Vocations Summit: Fishers of Men. This project is a presbyteral workshop which utilizes the appreciative inquiry method of asking priests about their most positive experiences in the priesthood.
It is the hope of the Bishops’ Committee on Vocations that this project will bring about a renewal of the priests in the United States and also lead to the regeneration of priesthood itself. This presbyteral workshop is based on interviews with priests. The actual convocation with the priest includes their testimonies of positive priestly experiences, establishing strategies for promoting priestly vocations, and creating a structure within the presbyterate for inviting men to consider the priesthood."

Show this to your friends and family, and especially to young men. The more this video spreads, the more vocations will spread with the help of our prayers!
God bless you all,
