AD GENTES (to the nations)

And how are they to believe in Him whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher? And how can men preach unless they are sent? Rom. 10:14-15

My year at Covecrest has come to an end. I have spent the last year discerning my vocation through prayer and formation. I have learned that the entire journey is the destination.  St. Therese of Lisieux once said, “My vocation is love”; this past year has taught me how to love. One’s vocation does not start in the future, it is in the here and now. If the vocation is love, then the question is “How do I love the best?” If the time is now, than the question becomes, “How do I love best in the present moment?”

“One mission field would never be enough; all the world, even its remotest islands, must be my mission field. Nor would my mission last a few short years, but from the beginning of the world to the end of time.” St. Therese of Lisieux
