I remain truly grateful for the family, friends, and strangers who helped support me with their prayers and financial contributions.
In 2007, an article entitled Debt, the Vocation Killer appeared in the National Catholic Register highlighting the vocational challenges many young people face because of their (educational) debt. A .pdf of the article, reprinted with permission, is available HERE. If you feel called, please consider donating to the following organizations who help eradicate the debt of young men and women so they can enter religious life. I have numerous friends who have benefited from these fine organizations.
Mater Ecclesiae Fund for Vocations
If you’re interested in making a donation directly to “my” sisters (the Apostles of the Sacred Heart of Jesus), you can do so on their website.
