Vocation Boom Needs Your Help

Vocation Boom is going to the next level, and we need your help! In December, phase two of our initiative will begin to unfold with the taping of the first series of Vocation Boom Radio shows. Fr. David Toups, pastor of Christ the King parish in Tampa - and former head of the USCCB Committee on Clergy, Consecrated Life and Vocations - has graciously invited us to record some shows in the studios of WBVM, the Catholic radio station in Tampa. The station is located on the grounds of his parish.

So, I’ll be traveling to Tampa in December to get the first several Vocation Boom Radio shows “in the can.” We hope to have them airing on Catholic stations and networks across the country by early January.

Now, here’s how you can help. The show is going to feature bishops, priests, vocation directors, seminary rectors, and, most notably, seminarians and their family members and friends. If you fall into any of the latter categories - in other words, if you’re in the seminary, or know someone who is - we want to hear from you, and soon! We need to identify at least a dozen seminarians and/or family members and friends within the next week or two, people we can feature on the show who love either preparing for the priesthood or supporting someone who is.

You can contact me directly at jerryusher@vocationboom.com. I look forward to hearing from you. And I ask that you keep the roll out of our radio show in your prayers.

Thanks and God bless!
