DAUGHTERS OF ST PAUL

Discerning one’s vocation is not just about making good choices, like what to wear today,

The desire for God is written in the human heart, because man is created by God and for God; and God never ceases to draw man to himself. Only in God will he find the truth and happiness he never stops searching for. The dignity of man rests above all on the fact that he is called to communion with God. This invitation to converse with God is addressed to man as soon as he comes into being. For if man exists it is because God has created him through love, and through love continues to hold him in existence. He cannot live fully according to truth unless he freely acknowledges that love and entrusts himself to his creator  ( CCC27). Discernment is seeking God’s will

Discernment is about developing a relationship with God

We help the young women in their vocational discernment by correspondence, offering them retreats and Come and See programmes. These are opportunities to help them discover and become more aware ot their vocation.
