We need boots on the ground, those boots being men willing to sacrifice, willing to lead, willing to say YES to God’s calling.

Serra Club of North Columbus was proud to sponsor the annual young men’s vocation luncheon on Tuesday, Nov the 9th  at The Pontifical College Josephinum. Bishop Earl blessed us with his time and true inspiration as he spoke to over 150 young men from Our Catholic Schools & home-schoolers within our diocese. All eyes and attention were on our Most Reverend and Humble Bishop as he shared his story of discerning the call to the priesthood. We have no doubt that his message resonated with many young men and stirred up their openness to hearing where the Lord may be leading them. The Bishop was transparent in stating that there are too many weak men. We need boots on the ground, those boots being men willing to sacrifice, willing to lead, willing to say YES to God’s calling. His message was delivered with a mix of a coach’s pep talk in the locker room and a theology teacher. St. Gabriel Radio will be airing his talk soon- stay tuned! Several seminarians led tours of the Josephinum and answered many questions from these young men. Please join us in prayer for all young men to be open to God’s true calling in their lives.
