As seminary enrollments continue to rise, the Los Angeles archdiocese has released a vocational video titled "Follow Me: Journeys to Priesthood," telling the stories of many seminarians discerning a call to priesthood.
Fr. Steve Davoren, vocations director for the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, said the vocations office hopes that the video will move more young men to "begin an internal dialogue with God to help them discern a possible vocation to the priesthood."
"We want to portray ordinary men being called by God to live extraordinary lives," he said Oct. 30.
The 13-minute video interviews seminarians and priests from different backgrounds about what inspired them to follow a vocation to the priesthood.
