MOBILE — Single Catholic women ages 18 to 40 can participate in a retreat that could help them determine if a religious vocation is right for them.
The 26-hour retreat, “Gulf Coast’s Got Sisters!" — sponsored by the sisters of the Mobile Archdiocese — is set for Jan. 29 – 30 in Mobile, Ala. It is free of charge, including lodging and meals.
“Women are invited to pray and share with sisters from various religious communities in the Mobile area as they discern their vocations,” said Sister Theresa Sullivan, vocation director for the Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul.
“This weekend is a great opportunity to serve and be a part of community life, while asking questions about discernment and getting answers in real time.”
The Daughters of Charity established Sacred Heart Hospital in Pensacola in 1915 and Providence Hospital in Mobile in 1855.
