Serrans meet for First Friday Mass at 7:00 a.m. followed
by a breakfast meeting and for a 6:00 p.m. Mass on the Third Thursday of
each month followed by dinner and a Spiritual Talk or general
discussion. The spiritual Talks and/or discussions help to contribute to
our members’ education and spiritual growth, which is necessary if we
are to fulfill our Mission.
In fulfilling our mission as Serrans, we pray constantly
for vocations through our Club 31. We visit and speak at each
Mass in each parish regularly about the need for more vocations. We
encourage others to pray daily and offer or attend an extra mass each
month for vocations.
We arrange affirmation events for the clergy and other
religious of the Archdiocese of Vancouver. We provide support and
assistance whenever possible.
The Serra Club of Vancouver works very closely with the
Vocation Office of the Archdiocese of Vancouver. We provide support for
various vocation related programs.
Our Chaplains are Fathers James Hughes and Hien Nguyen
who are also the Vocation Directors of the Archdiocese of Vancouver.
Together we promote vocations to the priesthood and religious life
through parish visitations.
Clergy Retirement Home Fund:
We need to look after our retired priests. To keep our retired priests
in Vancouver, we need to provide them with a home. The Archbishop and
his Archdiocesan Finance Council are supportive of this project. We have
two apartments donated towards the fund already. Pray for the success of
this project. |
