 Some men - and women - might be called to join a religious order rather than serve as a parish priest. RSBP - an organization of religious sisters, brothers and priests - can help you learn more about their ways of serving God and his people.
Vocation Reflection
What can I do?
Respect that question.
Trust that you,
can do for God,
what otherwise would not be done.
Trust that some people will hear the gospel of Jesus,
that some who are in need
will find the touch of human love,
that others will find a listening ear
or a voice in their poverty,
only because you have chosen
to give God a central place in your life . .
It is not just your work,
your choice,
your decision.
You choose because you are chosen,
you choose because
in the heart of your desire to love,
you have found the heart of God searching for you.
(Come, Follow Me, Bishops Pastoral 1989) |  | ARE YOU CALLED...
to be a Diocesan Priest in the Archdiocese of San Antonio?
 There have been priests in San Antonio since 1691, when Father Damian Massanet, camping at a rancheria of Payaya
Indians on a stream called Yanaguana, celebrated mass and renamed the stream San
Antonio because it was the feast of Saint
Anthony of Padua.
Now we are on the edge of a new millennium. Your Church needs priests, brothers and sisters as much today as it did on that blessed day more than 300 years ago. Are you one of those who has been called? Have you thought about a religious vocation? In this website we hope to answer some of the questions you might have about being a religious sister, brother or priest.
