The Westminster Vocations Promotion Team has recently begun a new group called 'Young Seekers'. Led by Fr Mike Maguire, the Assistant Vocations Promoter, this group hopefully will attract men in their late teens and early twenties to meet regularly and share their hopes and maybe their uncertainties about the call of the Lord.  The meetings will take place at 6.45pm, usually on the last Thursday of the month.

Please get in touch with Fr Mike at vocations@rcdow.org.uk for more details. To be kept up-to-date with Westminster Vocations, please ‘like’ the Westminster Vocations Facebook page or follow on Twitter @WestminsterVoca
