Hundredfold: A Guide to Parish Vocation Ministry

 

Rhonda Gruenewald, from her experience of leading a successful parish vocation ministry, has written Hundredfold: A Guide to Parish Vocation Ministry providing information, activities, and inspiration to anyone starting, reviving, or refreshing a Vocation Ministry, and to make those ministries thrive. It is designed to inspire parishes to get involved in vocation work, to help new ministries start strong by providing a clear guide to the nuts and bolts of the ministry, and to reinvigorate long-standing committees with fresh ideas that attract new workers to God’s vineyard.

This book gives the reader:

  • an overview of vocations: why we need to promote good vocations to the priesthood, religious life, and sacramental marriage, and why the parish is the perfect place to promote vocations;

  • direction on the aspects of administering a Vocation Ministry: praying for its effectiveness, recruiting people to be involved, leading efficient meetings, tapping into additional resources, and funding the ministry;

  • a prayerful guide to how to implement up to 67 different vocation activities that involve some aspect of prayer, awareness and education, youth, and affirmation, including step-by-step instructions for each activity, so that a ministry, new or established, has exactly the tools needed to foster vocations in a parish.

Rhonda Gruenewald understands how each parish vocation committee/ministry must reinvent the wheel when it comes to vocation work.

Treading her own path for vocations, she has written Hundredfold: A Guide to Parish Vocation Ministry so that your ministry does not have to start from scratch, making that path easier and more fruitful for you.

Sembrando Semillas: Una Guía para Ministerio de Vocación Parroquial

 

Did you know that we have only 5% of priests in the US identifying as Hispanic or Latino? Those few priests are not nearly enough to minister to the Hispanic Catholics, who make up 35% of US Catholics. Laypeople in these communities are crucial to promoting priesthood, religious life, and sacramental marriage to these parishioners! Sembrando Semillas: Una Guía para Ministerio de Vocación Parroquial aims to assist Spanish-speaking laypeople to have vibrant Parish Vocation Ministries.

This book gives the reader: 

  • Activities to inspire Latino parishioners to pray for and promote vocations in their parishes
  • Updated statistics and information, geared toward Spanish-speaking Catholics
  • New foreword by Bishop Oscar Cantú of Las Cruces, New Mexico
  • New afterword by Reverend Victor Perez
  • Endorsement by Bishop Arturo Cepeda of the Archdiocese of Detroit
