St John Vianney Discernment Group
If you ponder the question in your heart...Am I being called to the priesthood?, then this group is for you. It provides an opportunity to find space to ponder further this question. Through prayer, reflection and discussion in the presence of facilitators and others who are discerning the same question you have a chance to delve further into the mystery of your calling.
This 4 session Discernment course is run under the patronage of St. John Marie Vianney, patron of priests.
The discernment course takes place over three Saturdays; on the 17th of October, the 21st of November and the 19th of December and one weekend from the 5th to 7th of February 2010. The meetings take place in Dublin city centre and the weekend in St Patricks Maynooth.
Each session will begin at 11am and run til about 2.30pm. We will begin with prayer using the scriptures followed by input on the following themes: October 17th: What is a vocation?, November 21st: How God calls...examples from scripture, December 19th: What is priesthood like today?, the sessions will conclude with Mass and something to eat.
The weekend away in Maynooth will provide participants with an opportunity to have some space to discern their unique vocation and through discussion, prayer and input have an opportunity to find clarity on their own call. The weekend takes place from the 5th to the 7th of February
There is no cost involved in taking part.
