Hearing God’s Call
“Religious Life is an uninterrupted exchange between the soul and her Bridegroom; everywhere one is at prayer: praying, working, sleeping, since Jesus and the soul are one.”
— Blessed Dina Belanger
Hearing the Call
What is a call to Religious life?
A call to Religious Life is characterized by:
-A sense in the heart of a woman that the Lord is pursuing her, calling her to belong completely to Him, to give her life in total service to Christ and His Church.
-a desire to live in community with those of the same mind and heart, with a particular charism, spirituality and mission in the world.
The woman responds to this call through the process of prayer and discernment, continually attuning her heart to the voice of the One who loved her first.
