The Sisters of the Society of the Divine Vocations more commonly referred to as The Vocationist Sisters, is a Congregation of Catholic Sisters founded by Fr. Justin Russolillo in the year 1921. The Vocationist Sisters presently serve God’s people in Italy, France, Brazil, Argentina, United States, the Philippines, India, Nigeria, Madagascar and Indonesia. Their field of work is: apostolate in the parishes, schools and missions aimed at identifying and guiding young people who seem to show signs of divine call to consecrated life.

The Vocationist Sisters take the simple vows of poverty, chastity and obedience. They believe in and practice a strong and steady community life and wear a religious habit.

Sr. Joanna Formation

The Formation House is a Religious House where the candidates who would like to become religious sisters are guided and encouraged in a spirit of House of Formation (194k)prayer, free of charge. There, the candidates study, pray and discern first of all the authenticity of their calling, under the guidance of the Vocationist Sisters, and as they progress in their spiritual life they absorb the basic principles of religious life and learn the beauty of a consecrated life spent for God and His people.

In all the activities, a Vocationist Sister, following the Venerable Fr. Justin’s advice to those who wish to assure success to their apostolic endeavors, urges everyone to receive frequently the Sacraments of Penance and of the Holy Eucharist. She is aware that only through the Sacraments, hearts are renewed and human minds are opened to God’s will.

                                                                 Apostolate

Vocationist Sisters at prayersThe Vocationist Sisters, in addition to their work in the Vocationaries, serve in the apostolate in parishes, schools and missions. Wherever they go and whatever they do, they address the same Vocationist objectives and use the same methods. They manage to be constantly involved in educating children and young people, as well as teaching them the lives of the saints and praying and singing with them. When a Sister identifies the sign of a vocation in any youngster or adult, she helps and guides them toward a life of service, either as a priest or a religious.

The Vocationist Sisters act as mothers as they nurture vocations to the priesthood and religious life. They actively help to recruit the candidates, to work and pray, and to sacrifice for their maintenance, support, and formation. This is as Jesus did with His apostles; He called them, formed them and sent them out into the world.

          Life Style and Spirituality

The Vocationist Sisters take the Vows of poverty, chastity and obedience in order to lead a simple life. They live in a religious community together and wear a religious habit as an outward sign.
