The Vocations Ministry has established a "31" Club, where each member has picked a day of the month to do something special for vocations (special prayers, attend mass, say a rosary, Eucharistic adoration). We are looking for more individuals to join. There are no meetings and no dues.
A Travelling Crucifix program has been initiated in the SMM School. A crucifix is passed around from class to class and students prayer for vocations when they have the cross. They are in the second year of this program.
The World Day of Prayer for Vocations will be celebrated May 12, 2019.
Vocations Awareness Week is celebrated in November of each year. There will be special programs developed for that week, involving the school and the parish.
If interested in doing more for vocations, the Serra Club of East Jefferson is looking for men to be more involved with encouraging and promoting increased vocations, affirm existing vocations, and enhancing their own vocation with activities throughout the year. Contact Joe Dicharry through the Parish Religious Education Office for more information at (504) 733-8980.
