God Calling: Vocation Vibes - Episode 28 - My Pro-Life Vocation: Sr. Constance's Story
Sr. Constance--having heard Pope John Paul II quote the Gospel passage “I came that they might have life and have it to the full” during World Youth Day celebrations in Denver many years ago--relates how “the crowds of hundreds of thousands of people disappeared, and he was speaking to me.” She tells the story of her vocation and encourages discerners to pause and consider whether these words might be an invitation to them as well to experience the joy of a vocation dedicated to “seeing to it” that life may flourish.
We Little Sisters of the Poor hope you'll consider Liking/Sharing/Following our podcast, for the sake of vocations and of the Kingdom! Reach out to us at lspusapodcast@gmailcom.
