�Being here in
San Antonio is not so much a question of practicality.� It is about
conversion and allowing my horizons to be broadened.� It seems God
is offering me an invitation to see things in a larger perspective.�

Research done for the Vocations
Committee indicates that an invitation from a priest is one of the
most effective ways of having a man consider the priesthood. Of
seminarians ordained in 2003, 78 percent said that a priest had
invited them to consider the priesthood. A 2001 USCCB survey,
however, indicated that only 30 percent of priests actively invite
men to consider the priesthood.
