The Jesuits USA Central and Southern Province has opened a new house of discernment for men considering a vocation to the Society of Jesus. Located in Houston, its purpose is to provide a space for serious candidates to discern whether God is calling them to religious life. This community offers candidates an opportunity to experience prayer, ministry, and communal living prior to entering the Society. Community members are invited by the vocations team.

To discern our personal vocation, we have to realize that it is a calling from a friend, who is Jesus. When we give something to our friends, we give them the best we have. … A vocation, while a gift, will undoubtedly also be demanding. God’s gifts are interactive; to enjoy them we have to be ready to take risks.
