National Vocation Awareness Week

Promoting vocations to ordained ministry and consecrated life through prayer, invitation, and educationĀ 

This week, the Catholic Church in the United States celebrates National Vocation Awareness! This annual week-long celebration began in 1976 and is dedicated to promoting vocations to the priesthood, diaconate, and consecrated life through prayer and education. The U.S. bishops also ask the faithful to renew our prayers and support for those who are considering one of these vocations.

If you are discerning a vocation to the priesthood, diaconate or consecrated life, you should consider daily personal prayer, increased attendance at Mass, reception of the Eucharist, more frequent confessions, practicing the virtues, and speaking with a trusted Confessor or spiritual mentor who can guide you in the process.

You can find some great resources for discernment from: And, if you follow us on Instagram or Facebook, you'll see videos from ordained Duke alumni in our Stories throughout the week!Ā 

Prayer for Vocations

God our Father,

we thank you for calling men and women to serve
in your Sonā€™s Kingdom as priests, deacons, and consecrated persons.

Send your Holy Spirit to help others
to respond generously and courageously to your call.

May our community of faith support vocations
of sacrificial love in our youth and young adults.

Through our Lord Jesus Christ,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, forever and ever.
Amen

Together We Thrive:
Help Sustain Our Faith Community


You might think,Ā "I don't have enough to give."But giving isn't just for those with steady incomesā€”it's an opportunity to grow in trust and commitment to God and our faith in Him, even as students.Ā 

The Duke Catholic Center isn't like a typical parish with families supporting it every week, and the DCC is not funded by the university or the diocese. In fact, over 85% of our funding comes directly from individual contributions made by students, parents, and alumni.Ā 

Whether it's $5, $10, or the price of your weekly coffee, a regular weekly or monthly financial commitment shows your love for this community and keeps it thriving for all of us! Let's join together in intentional giving and make an impact today.Ā
