God is Calling Us to Ministry: A Vocational Handbook for all the Baptized

ByEpiscopal Diocese of Rochester

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
This Vocational Handbook is designed to assist all baptized members to discern and celebrate the gifts of ministry that they bring to their communities – home, neighborhood, work place, church, or public-square – and doing this involves us in a major cultural change. It is a major change from a culture in which “ministry” was considered to be a special vocation limited to those who are ordained. That all changed with the advent of the 1979 Book of Common Prayer, where the Baptismal Covenant makes it clear that all baptized persons are involved in a life of ministry in some form or another—we are called to “seek and serve Christ in all persons”, “to strive for justice and peace”, and ”to respect the dignity of every human being.” (BCP p. 304 f.)
