We hope to provide here helpful questions, ways of thinking, ideas and information for people considering a calling to a Religious Vocation. We hope that the pages in this section will help these people to come to a correct decision regarding God's plans for them at this difficult crossroads. Perhaps you might also like to think about what Religious Life is and is not, and then reflect on some searching questions, whilst pondering God's call?
If you have questions or believe you have a Vocation, then please use our Links to Religious Orders to find an Order that you think speaks to your calling.
In addition to the wide variety of opportunities for service that exist within religious orders, there are a number of other organisations that offer opportunities for experiences of temporary apostolic commitments. This list provides a few examples where placements might range from a few months to a couple of years.
