Family Prayer
Are you willing to commit with your family to praying one day per month for women’s vocations in our Archdiocese?
In our desire for the expansion of women’s religious life in our own local Archdiocese, we are committed to laying a foundation of prayer for all that we do, and we believe in kids’ prayers!
Our goal is to have 2 families praying every day of the month for this intention. Sign up here.
Accompaniment
As you follow Jesus in a journey of discernment, we desire to walk with you. If you are interested in joining a small group or receiving 1:1 accompaniment, please contact us at vocations@renewreligious.org.
