Vocation Awareness Week

National Vocation Awareness Week, celebrated November 3-9, 2024, is an annual week-long celebration of the Catholic Church in the United States dedicated to promoting vocations to the priesthood, diaconate and consecrated life through prayer and education, and to renew our prayers and support for those who are considering one of these particular vocations.

The Serra Club of St. Louis is happy to provide your parish Vocation Holy Cards (see options).  Contact Barb Hussey bhussey@prodigy.net to have the quantity that you want delivered to you.  This year we are offering spanish versions of the Vocation Holy Cards (see options).

St. Junipero Serra

Our Patron Saint

St. Serra’s devotion to God, preaching the gospel, as well as his zeal for evangelization, is what defined his sainthood and makes him the ideal patron Saint for priests and religious.

We are officially recognized by the Holy See

The Vatican recognizes Serra International as the only global lay apostolate for vocations in the Catholic Church.  Serra Club of St. Louis is an affiliate of Serra International.

When you pray, you’re not just saying words. You’re also learning how to listen to the Lord’s voice.  When we seek a relationship with God, we’re learning to desire His will.
