 Welcome to the vocation page of the New England Province of the Society of Jesus! As Director of Vocations, my role is to help you discern God's call to serve as a Jesuit priest or brother. I accompany candidates throughout the process of prayerful discernment that concludes with the formal application process and acceptance into the novitiate. I am eager to help you grow in your relationship with God so that you can come to know your deepest desires and hear more clearly God's invitation to serve.
The discernment process involves regular meetings with a spiritual director, a silent directed retreat, and monthly gatherings of candidates at the many Jesuit communities and apostolates in the New England area. I encourage you to explore the various sections of this vocations page. Check the upcoming events section for a listing of opportunities to learn more about Jesuit life, and to meet Jesuits who are eager to help you discern your call to serve the people of God. Please contact me if I can assist you in these early stages of the long and wonderful journey that is Jesuit formation or you would like to visit the Manresa House.
