Welcome to Paulist Vocations

Hi and welcome to our web site.

I, Father Ed Nowak, have enjoyed being the Director of Vocations for the last six years. Effective, August 1, 2008 I will be moving to Austin, Texas to become the Director of Campus Ministry at the University of Texas. I will be "trading places" with Father Davd E. Farnum, CSP who will be moving to New York City to become the new Director of Vocations for the Paulist Fathers.

Hi, I'm Father Dave Farnum and I look forward to taking up the duties of the Director of Vocations in August, 2008. I bring to this assignment seven years as a campus minister, most recently at the University of Texas in Austin. As a vocation director, I will be a "spotter for Christ." I will try to be His eyes and ears---to invite others to explore the priesthood and religious life.

The Paulist Difference

The Paulist difference is to meet the contemporary culture on its own terms. We preach the Gospel in new ways and in new forms, so that the deep spiritual longings of the culture might find fulfillment in Jesus Christ. We use printing presses, movie cameras, and web servers to communicate the words of Christ—the Word Himself—to a new generation of Americans.  READ MORE>
