You did not choose me, but I chose you and
appointed you that you should go and bear fruit
and that your fruit should last.
John 15, 16

Men's discernment

The diocese of Salford is here to help any man who needs assistance with discerning his vocation. First, it is recommended that you read some of the advice on this website. Then there are various options to take.

If you are discerning a calling to the priesthood, then please get in touch with the Vocations Director, Fr David Featherstone (featured on video below and to the right ? ).

You may need help in discerning a calling to marriage. If this is the case, please get in touch with your parish priest or the Holy Family Project, run by the Schoenstatt Fathers.

If you are looking for the religious life, then the websites of the specific congregations are usually good places to start. For communities in the Diocese of Salford, please go to the directory.
