Reviews of new resources for promoting vocations
Interact with catechists nationwide
AMPLIFY is a short, dynamic online workshop to help Catholic principals, teachers, DREs, and catechists to amplify God’s call in their schools and parishes.
Short presentations from vocations experts:
Mother Clare Matthiass, CFR
Mother Clare Matthiass was born in Germany and spent her childhood moving from post to post while her father served in the military.
She attended Franciscan University of Steubenville, and joined the Franciscan Sisters of the Renewal (CFRs) in 1998. (Wow–almost 25 years ago!) Her primary mission, like all CFR sisters, is hands-on work with the poor and evangelization.
She was instrumental in producing the film For Love Alone and is the author of the widely-used book Discerning Religious Life and the new children’s series Little Convent in the Big City.
