While to the secular culture this may come as a bit of a shock, for men and women who have answered a calling to a religious vocation, this is no surprise.
 No other calling offers the same great opportunities to live and work out of a person’s deepest convictions, oftentimes in the midst of communities of faith with others who share their passion for faith, compassion, and service.

The religious life is not a life of loneliness and seclusion, but one of great joy, happiness, and fulfilment. For many young men discerning a vocation to the priesthood or professed religious life, the call to a life of joy and service in the name of Christ far outweighs what secular jobs have to offer. No other lifestyle gives true freedom like one where you give your life to God completely.
