The Serra Club of Indianapolis is sponsoring its 2024 annual vocations essay contest. It is open to any Catholic student in grades 7 through 12 in parochial, public or homeschool systems in the Archdiocese of Indianapolis.
The theme and question for this year’s contest are:
Theme: We are now in the parish year of the Eucharistic Revival in the United States. This three year process, an event planned by the United States Conference of the Catholic Bishops, will culminate with a major event in Indianapolis from July 17-21, 2024. This is a defining moment for this generation to acknowledge Jesus, the True Presence in the Eucharist! The revival calls upon people of all ages, lay and religious, to pray and participate in the renewal of faith the world so desperately needs.
Question: How can a parish, school and family life help young people embrace the importance of the Eucharist in their vocation and call to holiness? Have you benefited from the efforts of your parish, school or family to promote a greater devotion and understanding of the Eucharist in your life?
For more details and an essay submission form, contact Jessica Fischer, Evangelization and Discipleship Coordinator, by leaving a voicemail at 812-357-6065. Information is also available from Serra Club member Dick Cannon.
