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. Interesting

Oh yes, the school is still open! It's in my diocese, and I had no idea they had so many vocations!!

Wow! I wish I had sent my daughter to that school!

LOL.

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

What an incredible number of vocations from one school. The reunion seemed awesome.!!

That's where the Capuchin Sisters of Nazareth are! I wish there were more solid communities in TX.

They are in Williamsport and Tunkhannock Pennsylvania. Its possible that they may have visited this high school, but Phileadelphia is about 3 hours from Williamsport.

Not intending to hijack this thread too much, but I thought there were quite a few good communities in TX.

That's what I thought too

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.

Yes. Here's praying they will reclaim their Catholicism in a meaningful and powerful way!
