DISCERNMENT

Vocation to the contemplative life begins with the call of God and the decision of each one of us to follow Jesus Christ with the help of the Holy Spirit.  Discernment requires a deeper kind of listening in one’s heart. As you are listening deep within your heart, if you are feeling that you are…

  • searching for a greater love and a deeper meaning and purpose in your life,
  • in spite of all that life can offer, there is something still missing in your heart such as inner stillness, a more lasting joy and a fullness of peace that the world cannot give,

  • feeling there is an emptiness in your heart that only God can fill,

  • and experiencing a longing to give yourself more completely to God and to the service of the Church.

God may be calling you to live a contemplative vocation!

Enter within yourself and work in the presence of your spouse who is ever present loving you.

–St. John of the Cross
