We are grateful to welcome Andrew Bendahan, our Lakewood seminarian, the weekend of October 24-25 as he visits the Lakewood Catholic Parishes to share his vocation story. Andrew will speak about his journey of discernment, his call to the priesthood, and the ways God has been at work in his life.
We offer a special invitation to men of our parishes-especially young men and those who may be wondering what God is asking of them—to seriously consider whether the Lord may be calling them to the priesthood. A vocation often begins with a simple question, a quiet stirring, or a willingness to listen more closely in prayer.
If you have ever considered the priesthood, even briefly, we encourage you to take this opportunity to speak with Andrew during his visit and hear firsthand what discernment and seminary life are like.
You are also welcome to contact Fr. Cam at frcam@stlukelakewood.org or Fr. Scott at frscott@stlukelakewood.org to begin a conversation.
Sometimes the first step in discerning a vocation is simply having the courage to ask: Lord, what are You calling me to?
