Vocations Advisers

The Bishops have appointed a person in each Deanery who is available to those who would like to talk through their sense of vocation. They are not part of any formal selection process but are willing to offer advice.

Vocations Advisors are also willing to preach on vocations or speak at special events in parishes.
