There is not a lot going on from my standpoint with the application process. I have completed the 2 interviews with priests. Next will be the psychological screening. I still need to write a 2 page essay on my understanding and appreciation of the priesthood.
I know that my reference letters are coming in slowly. I've received copies of a couple. They are treasured reading.
I continue to meet with my spiritual adviser. He is a godsend in my life. I am scheduled to meet with Fr H in the vocation office a couple days after Thanksgiving. I'm sure I'll have an update after that meeting.
In the spirit of Thanksgiving this week, thank you for this blog...I had no idea all that was involved in the discerning process. God bless and keep the faith.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment. As they say, it is "many small steps". According to information I received earlier this year at a vocation retreat, the 4 years in the seminary is 4 years of discernment.
