Creating a culture of vocations takes all of us.

How You Can Help

  • Just tell him.

    Do you see something in a young man you know that indicates he might be called to priesthood? He might not see it himself. Or, he might doubt what he hears. Telling him might make the difference.

  • Donate.

    The House of Discernment, seminarian tuition, the Savio program, and more are only possible because the faithful of our Diocese support them. What wonders have been worked because of your generosity! If you would like to make a gift, please call or email the Vocations Office. Contact at bottom of page.

  • Pray daily.

    Pray for our House residents and seminarians. Pray for your parish priests. Pray for the Sisters & Brothers you know. Pray for our Marriages & Families and for our Deacons and those living the Single life. Why? Because prayers work.

  • Come & Pray.

    We pray every Monday Night for Vocations. Usually, 150 to 250 men & women join us for it, and you would be surprised at the age-range. 6:30pm Adoration & Confessions before a 7:30pm Mass all at Sacred Heart Church in Evansville. All are welcome!

See something in a young man you know?

Reaching out to us could be the thing that he needs to hear God’s call for him.
