Simply put, a vocation is a call from God.  Regardless of our current vocational state (student, married, dating, in religious formation, single, etc), God calls each of us to holiness in our own unique way (CCC 825).  It is up to each of us to follow wherever God is calling us each day.  It is through these small acts of faith that we will be able make the big decisions in our lives and discern our vocation.

"Whoever opens his heart to Christ will not only understand the mystery of his own existence, but also that of his own vocation; he will bear the abundant fruit of grace."

~Pope John Paul II
