Celebrating Vocations Sunday on April 22, Chair of the Bishops’ Council for Vocations Bishop Alphonsus Cullinan prayed for vocations to the priesthood while delivering his homily.
Reflecting on a recent trip to Medjugorje in which accompanied transition year students, he shared how he was “struck by the beautiful relationship the young people have with their priest,” and how central the priest’s role is in their lives, especially on pilgrimage to sites like Medjugorje.
Drawing on his own experience as an example, Bishop Cullinan continued, “there are many wonderful things and many adventures in store for every priest…if you can trust Him, He will guide you along the right path.”
