Fr Stephen Langridge appointed Vocations Director

Flipping through my blogroll reminded me to tell you the news from the Archdiocese of Southwark. In a recent Letter Ad Clerum, Archbishop McDonald announced that he has appointed Fr Stephen Langridge as Vocations Director for the Archdiocese. This is very good news. Fr Stephen has done great work heading up the Vocations Promotion Team, pioneering Seekers Meetings and retreats for young men interested in the priesthood and keeping in touch with those who are at university. He also runs a Southwark Vocations Blog.

Great appointment! With Fr Stephen running the show we should see Southwark vocations blossom.

Missions to Catholic schools are desperately needed. Get the young (and some not-so-young) solid orthodox priests into our schools to lead vocational missions, days of recollection, retreats etc...

We will keep the vocation intentions in our prayers. This is so important and it cannot be overstated that while Catholic Schools concentrate great effort on academic excellence and careers advice for their students even greater effort should be put into ensuring that young Catholic men and women should have every opportunity and resource placed at their disposal that they may discern a vocational call from Jesus in their lives.
