Traveling Chalice Instructions:
To pick up: pick up in vestibule area after your selected Mass.
To return: return it the following week to the sacristan before Mass. Please arrive 15 minutes early to ensure a smooth hand off.
Note: please make sure you are picking up and returning to the same Mass you selected.
Purpose:
The word vocation is derived from the Latin word vocare, “to call,” and so a vocation is a calling. Above all, everyone has a vocation to holiness, a universal call to holiness, which Christ gives to us in the Gospel (John 13:34). The principle of the Traveling Chalice is to help us focus and encourage prayer for vocations and to have the courage to listen and respond to God’s calling.
Mission Statement:
“To open the hearts of all Your sons and daughters and to listen to Your call in all our lives.”
