The National Religious Vocation Conference shared an article yesterday about the positive benefits of service opportunities in a young
adult’s life. One benefit in particular being the gift of discernment. As a
young adult myself and a member of the JP2 generation, a generation who seeks
out service opportunities, I can fully support the positive benefits of any
service opportunity. I myself spent a week in rural Guatemala where I was able
to see first-hand where God was calling me. The individuals I met in Guatemala showed me kindness,
simplicity, love and faith in ways I had never before experienced. I
remember lying awake at night, my mind racing with questions but my heart
content because I knew my next step in life was to choose a career in ministry. I never looked back and my heart has been content since then.
Consider reading the article: http://globalsistersreport.org/column/horizons/volunteering-led-vows-27856.
Have you considered volunteering? Have you been part of a volunteer opportunity that changed how you approached life?
