VocationsDiscerning a religious vocation demands time,prayer and significant self-searching. The Diocese ofNashville is blessed with 22 seminarian candidatesand this Appeal helps to train these good andselfless future priests who will nurture us through theEucharist, teach us through the Word, and serve thespiritual needs of God’s people. Catholic Charities, the social service arm of the Diocese

of Nashville, assists more than 60,000 people in 38counties across Middle Tennessee each year. Providingthese critical services is fundamental to who we are asCatholics, modeled on the service of Jesus Christ.
