Instructions

With so many options, it is not easy to discern the best path to live out your Christian calling. If you're not sure which vocation or religious community would be right for you, let Vocation Match help you narrow your search.

You can go through the match, receive your results, and remain in complete control of who, if anyone, is sent your profile. You will be asked a series of questions that will help you gain insight into your vocation and help us match you with compatible religious communities, institutes, or organizations.

As with any survey, the more honest you are about your background and preferences, the better your chances of finding a good match.

When you choose a vocation, you are deciding in practical terms how you want to spend your days. What living conditions and daily work do you find most satisfying and best suited for? Take into account your personality type, talents, and personal preferences.

Many communities have varied lifestyles and ministries, so you will always have opportunities for change and growth.

For now, answer the questions based on your current preferences.
