(LAY) VOCATIONAL EXPERIENCE...

It is important to tell all those who are searching for Peace and especially for the "DIVINE WILL" that, in addition to participating in the Holy Mass (receiving Jesus in the Eucharist and confessing with a Catholic priest), it is recommended that in the beginning - if they so desire - they participate in some moments of prayer with you ADP-VV, to see if the Lord might also want them to become a member or start a new ADP-VV group of prayer, and...

...if they keep searching for more, then invite them to share with us "Little Friars and Little Nuns" some time exclusively dedicated to them, and then we will see...

If you notice then (or even earlier) that they tend more toward consecrated life than marriage, you can also tell them that - if it please God - we can grant them a stay with us for some weekends (2-3, making exceptions for those who come from far away).

If they indeed search - with effort, humility, and due appreciation - to discern the Divine Will written from all eternity for them, then we can also grant them a quiet experience of "attentive prayer," of at least two weeks (no less), so that we can better delve into their vocational research. Eventually, if we see together that things are going well, very good; but if not, if there is not the right enthusiasm, we can direct them - for their greater good and ours - towards other religious families, given that we get to know many in our travels. Otherwise, we would run the risk of making everything one color, and of watering down the Spirit of GOD with the spirit of the confusion we have left behind. For it is also written: "But the woman was given the two [spiritual] wings of the great eagle to fly to the desert [of the test] towards the refuge prepared for her [and for all who desire it] to be nourished for a[n indeterminate] time...far from the serpent [which is the spirit of the world: that is, the sea of people who do not seek God]." (cf. Rev. 12:14-18)
