In collaboration with the Jesuits USA East Vocations Office, the St. Ignatius Catholic Community actively promotes religious vocations in general and vocations to the Society of Jesus in particular.  Prayers for vocations are a regular part of the Sunday liturgy.  In June 2025, the community was rededicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus – a devotion with deep historical and spiritual significance for the Society of Jesus. Intercessions will seek to promote religious vocations.  St Ignatius’ videographers are interviewing its priests, sisters, and deacons to learn how they discerned their call to religious life and the greatest gift of that life.  In November 2025, St. Ignatius’ Parish Religious Education Program (PREP) will include attention to religious vocations and will host a visit by a Jesuit.  On the first Sunday of each month beginning in November 2025, St. Ignatius will also commission a PREP family to pray for vocations through the “Pass the Vocations Chalice” effort.
