Answering the Call

Discover your vocation with the Pallottine Society of the Catholic Apostolate

Pallottine Vocations

Is God Calling You?

Every Christian is called to be an apostle — this is the heart of the Pallottine charism. But some are called in a particular way to live this apostolate as a vowed religious, as a priest, or as a brother in the Society of the Catholic Apostolate.

If you feel in your heart a desire to serve God more fully, to bring His love to others through community life, prayer, and apostolic service — we invite you to take a closer look at the Pallottine vocation.

"The love of Christ urges us on."
— 2 Corinthians 5:14
