Each of the follwoing is a directed mini vocational discernment retreat. Since a retreat is an encounter with God in prayer, set aside enough time to do it well, usually one hour. These points are a means to engage in a personal conversation with Christ and deepen your relationship with him. If at all possible, it is best to do the retreat in the presence of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament. If this is not possible, be sure to choose another location that is free from outside distractions and where you can encounter Christ in the silence of your heart.
