Vocations Newsletter
Voices Of Our World
Winter 2025
Fr. Rodrigo begins our Winter 2025 – 2026 Vocation Newsletter by observing that, much like the signs of God’s love that guide us through the Advent and Christmas seasons, discerning a vocation requires attention to the signs that God sends us in our daily lives. We see, discern, and live into these signs as turn our hearts to God’s call, to the needs of others, and to the gifts we bring to those lowly of birth. As Maryknoll Father Bill Mullan remarked of his own ministry in Central America, “The missioner is a sign of hope, someone from the outside showing respect, love and concern for people in, at times, desperate situations.”
We also announce our 2026 Holy Week “Come and See” Retreat, April 1st — 5th, 2026, for men discerning priesthood or Brotherhood. Please join us at our Mission Center at Maryknoll, NY, where we will journey together with Christ to a new life in God’s love.
