Vocation Directors: Leading the Call to Vocations

As a vocation director, you are the heart of your diocese’s mission to inspire and sustain vocations to the priesthood, consecrated life, and holy matrimony. Partner with Vocation Ministry to equip your leadership with proven tools and strategies.

A Call to Action

Across the Church, vocations are declining. Over the past decade, seminarians and priestly ordinations have dropped significantly. Many dioceses face challenges in nurturing discernment, lacking the structure and support to foster lasting growth.

The Vocation Ministry Blueprint

Our proven, prayerful process equips dioceses to build vibrant discernment communities. Tailored to your unique needs, the Blueprint combines data, coaching, and workshops to foster lasting vocations.

Foundation Assessment

Understand your diocese’s context through a detailed evaluation. Define goals, identify collaborators, and plan with proven strategies tailored to your needs.

Personalized Coaching

Equip vocation directors with ongoing, one-on-one support to lead with confidence, implement initiatives like Called By Name, and engage parishes effectively.

Formation Workshops

Inspire priests and laity with customized workshops offering practical tools to build a vocation culture, from prayer activities to youth engagement.

Data Modeling

Leverage diocesan-specific data to project priest retirements, seminarian needs, and ordination goals, ensuring informed, strategic planning.

Transforming Dioceses, Inspiring Vocations

Our partnerships have significantly strengthened vocation efforts, fostering a substantial rise in seminarians and discerners across dioceses. This graph highlights the remarkable growth achieved within two years, driven by the Vocation Ministry Blueprint Model.

A Tucson Transformation

In 2023, the Diocese of Tucson had just one seminarian. Through our Blueprint Model, we partnered with Bishop Edward J. Weisenburger and Fr. Alan Valencia to build a vibrant discerner pipeline. In two years, Tucson grew to eight seminarians, with eight more in discernment.

“Thank you. Our discerner funnels are working!”
