God’s call is finding a place where we can thrive and be our fullest selves
“When we talk about vocation, when we talk about a call, it’s not that God is asking us to fit into some box that doesn’t suit us.”
Novice Sister Tracey Horan shares what she has learned about God’s call and vocation in the video clip below.

Excellent insight, Tracey!
Tracey, I liked your description of vocation as “finding a fit” in God’s plan for an individual. Thanks for your sharing!
S. Rita Clare
Well stated, as usual, Tracey.
Excellent! Thank you for sharing your insights about “call” and vocation, Tracey.
You hit the heart of the matter, Tracey. Thanks.
