Vocational Discernment

Vocational discernment retreats allow young men to pray about their vocation and truly experience life as Legionaries.

INTENSIFY YOUR PRAYER LIFE

The Regnum Christi App

Download The Regnum Christi App from iTunes or the Google Play Store and consider familiarizing yourself with the charism that the Legionaries share with the other vocations in Regnum Christi. You can set up personalized notifications to remind you to pray with RC Daily Mediations (written by Legionaries of Christ), read articles about Legionaries of Christ and Regnum Christi members living their mission, listen to podcasts, watch videos, and participate in novenas.

What is God saying to you?

Many people nowadays talk about a shortage of priests and dwindling numbers of consecrated men and women. Does this mean that God has stopped calling young men and women to serve him and his Church with the total gift of self? Certainly not.

In this Retreat Guide on Vocation and the Calling of St. Matthew with Fr. John Bartunek, LC, we will go back and reflect on what it means for every single one of us to hear and heed the voice of the Lord in our lives:

  • The First Meditation will look at some of Jesus’ teaching about what a vocation really is.
  • The Second Meditation will focus on the calling of St. Matthew and its unforgettable depiction in Caravaggio’s masterpiece baroque painting.
  • The Conference will give some practical guidelines that we can all use to discern our own vocation, or to help others discern theirs.
