THE REAL VOCATION CRISIS IS...


Archbishop TImothy Dolan of New York recently gave an interview in which he listed the first great challenge facing the Church as “the instability of marriage and family.”


The Archbishop continued: “That’s where we have the real vocation crisis,” noting that “only 50% of our Catholic young people are getting married. We have a vocation crisis to life-long, life-giving, loving, faithful marriage. If we take care of that one, we’ll have all the priests and nuns we need for the church,”


There’s great food for thought for us all. Please join me in praying that the Lord will send a special blessing down upon all those whom he calls to the Sacrament of Marriage, that from the Domestic Church there might be born a renewal of all of Catholic family life,
