Expert Support for Vocation Offices
An Extension of Vocation Office Staff
Most Vocation Directors have a long “wish list” of projects that they don’t have the time or expertise to accomplish. That’s exactly why Vianney Vocations exists. We act as an extension of your staff, bringing 10+ years of experience working with other Vocation Offices. We help you:
- Assess your current efforts and create a Vocation Plan
- Re-ignite enthusiasm for fostering vocations throughout the diocese
- Provide high-level digital and print communications
- Ensure events are well-promoted and well-attended
- Provide parishes and schools with high-quality resources
Essentially, we provide behind-the-scenes support for events, communications, planning, and more.
Since 2009, we have worked with over 100 dioceses. Instead of re-inventing the wheel, we’ll help you focus on the most effective ways to raise vocation awareness and reach young people.

Most Vocation Directors have additional assignments as pastors, chaplains, and diocesan curia. Vianney Vocations provides “background expertise” so that Vocation Directors can focus on their most important work: building relationships with young people as they discern whether to enter formation.

GETTING STARTED WITH VIANNEY VOCATIONS
The first step is a phone call to talk about your diocesan situation and the needs of the Vocation Office. Contact Sam Alzheimer, 877-585-1551, sam@vv-staging-january.mystagingwebsite.com.
For many projects, we can work via phone, video call, and email. For larger engagements, we often begin with an in-person meeting to get to know you, your staff, and the diocese.
In all our work, we always emphasize the dignity of the priesthood and the spiritual nature of God’s call. Our aim is to help you attract spiritually healthy men who will serve God’s people faithfully.
