Vocation of Priesthood | Ryan | Thursday, July 7, 2011 |
Question: Hello Brother. I asked this question a while ago, about Priests and Martial Arts, and I'm not sure if you remember, but I am writing in a kind of victory because I am at the point in my discernment right now where not only am I willing to give up martial arts if I have to for the priesthood, but I think I am actually going to do so voluntarily whether or not I have time and/or allowance for it. Instead, I will dedicate all the rest of the time I then gain to strengthen my preaching and ministry to Christ. Perhaps I may administer a kind of apostolate of some sort instead of doing martial arts. Or a similar kind of time investment. Who knows. |

Dear Ryan: I praise God that your discernment about the priesthood is stronger and more focused. Thank you, on behalf of our readers, for your insights about discernment. We will be praying for your vocation. As for the question about martial arts, the reader can go to Priests and Martial Arts. All of us should follow the mottoes posted below, but especially a priest or religious: Nihil amori Christi praeponere ...and to be Crucis Christi servorum famulus
