Promoting Religious Vocations Through Digital Media
Vocations Outreach, an outreach of Franciscan University of Steubenville’s Catechetical Institute, promotes religious vocations by creating and compiling resources for religious communities and young adults discerning religious life. Our work also includes sharing these resources with those who are interested in promoting vocations.
Serving Religious Orders
-
Giving religious orders access to the digital resources they need to promote vocations to their communities
We serve religious communities in good standing with the Catholic Church by providing them with free videography, photography, and graphic design services. Any religious order we work with is guaranteed a professional product, created in a timely manner, with minimal inconvenience to the community. We are also committed to providing additional marketing for orders who work with us by promoting their videos and photos on Vocations Outreach platforms.

Connecting religious orders with the opportunity to act as mentors with young discerners via our discernment mentorship program.
Religious can act as mentors to discerners who apply for our formation program via Vocations Outreach, or they may use our formation program to aid young adults already discerning with their community.
