“Vocation is more than just priesthood,” says Ann Marie Gallagher, Director of Vocations Ireland, who was recently at the European Vocations Service Conference in Rome. The theme was “joyful witness” and there were delegates from twenty-two countries all looking at how to creatively meet the challenge of vocations. She talks to Miriam Gormally about how the opportunity to meet with others who are also working in the area of vocations energised her and how she was further inspired by having two audiences with the Pope. Miriam began by putting it to her that vocations have become more difficult to achieve in Western countries.
