National Vocation Awareness Week - 2008
January 13-18, 2008 
The Feast of the
Baptism of the Lord marks Jesus’
initiation into public ministry. At his baptism Jesus is
named the Beloved Son of God. With this celebration
we recommit ourselves to follow in the footsteps of
Jesus. Initiated through our baptism we too are the
Beloved of God, commissioned to proclaim Good
News with our lives.
The observance of National Vocation Awareness
Week (NVAW) began in 1976 when the National
Conference of Catholic Bishops designated the 28th
Sunday of the year as the beginning of NVAW. In 1997
this celebration was moved to coincide with the Feast
of the Baptism of the Lord.
