Welcome!<\/strong>\"\"<\/a> The Lord continues to call young people to dedicate the whole of their lives to his love and service, as when\u00a0looking at the rich young man in the Gospel with love he said, <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cGo, sell what you have and\u00a0give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven, and come follow me.\u201d
\n(Mark 10:21)\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

If you feel the stirrings in your heart towards religious life, be not afraid! There are many graces in the discernment journey and many people and resources to help you embrace whatever call the Lord has given you. We are happy to help young women in discerning the vocation the Lord is\u00a0inviting them to live.<\/strong><\/p>\n
