Q and A

What is Consecrated Life?

Are all religious orders, like the Benedictines, Franciscans, Dominicans, or Sisters of Mercy, the same?

Does it make a difference which community I join?

What is the contemplative life? How do I know if I am called to it?

What vows do religious take and what do they mean?

Why do some religious wear a distinctive uniform dress?

Can I learn and try out being a sister or brother without becoming one?

What are the stages of religious formation?

With so many communities to choose from how do I know the one to which I am being called?

What if I do not follow the vocation to which God is calling me?
