A nice song I was sent by a friend, titled "The Pearl."

An important book which helps to dispel problematic notions of vocation:
"Religious Vocation: An Unnecessary Mystery", by Fr. Richard Butler, OP
ISBN-10: 0895558238
pub'd in 1961, reprinted by TAN in 2005

Unfortunately, the mistakes addressed in that book still prevail among the literature and vocabulary of many vocations offices and directors. Every generous young person, priest, religious and parent should borrow or buy a copy of that book, read it, and take it very seriously. If that happened, I think we could truly hope in a new flourishing of our religious and priestly institutes.
