alicemary Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Philadelphia used to have so many vocations. There are so many wonderful religious communities in the Philly area. You can find whatever you are looking for close by. I am not sure, is this high school still open? It is not in the best neighborhood these days.

Tina44 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Oh yes, the school is still open! It's in my diocese, and I had no idea they had so many vocations!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piccoli Fiori JMJ Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 They did say that the school is now only about half Catholic... but, it is quite possible the Holy Spirit works His wonders there and that there are many still open to God's Will for them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its possible that they may have visited this high school, but Phileadelphia is about 3 hours from Williamsport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-I---Love Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 After reading the complete linked article and school's website one finds that there are not many vocations being produced there today. The mission statement isn't exactly yelling "we're Catholic" and hence it's no surprise the school isn't what it used to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
