     Milwaukee Prepares For National Vocations Week
 
  You might wait forever for God to call in a booming voice from the sky, but turn up the boom box on LAZER 103, KISS (WXSS) 103.7, V100 or WCTX in Fond du Lac if you want to know how else God calls men to priesthood today.

Radio commercials featuring Father Tim Kitzke and Father Bill Kohler hit the air waves right after Christmas and will continue through the end of National Vocations Awareness Week, January 13-19, 2002. In addition to Milwaukee stations geared toward young adults and teens, WFMR will broadcast the commercials to reach parents and other potential mentors for young people trying to figure out what God wants them to do.

The radio ads bolster other local activities celebrating National Vocations Awareness Week. Seminarians will return to their home parishes to talk about vocations at weekend Masses January 12-13 and January 19-20. Father Bob Stiefvater, vocations director, will be "In the Spotlight" at Good Shepherd-Menomonee Falls, where he will give a presentation to families on how children of various ages approach career and vocational choices.

All parish priests received suggestions for tailoring their homilies to teach what the readings for the weekend of January 12-13 mean today. Parish vocation teams, too, received a roster of potential activities.

Everyone has a vocation, whether to marriage, priesthood or religious life, or to life as a single layperson. Turn up the volume during National Vocations Awareness Week as you listen for clues about which vocation is right for you.
