Priestlyand Religious vocations are featured in thevarious small images, but also marriage, thefamily meal and many aspects of life, plantingand reaping, music and song.We are all challenged to use our talents forthe good of the community, to contribute tothe welfare of our brothers and sisters and tolive according to the motto of CardinalVaughan: ‘TO LOVE AND TO SERVE’.<strong>The</strong> Christian Vocation in different walksof life is beautifully portrayed in the painting.In the past, when we spoke of vocation, weimmediately thought of the call to priesthoodor religious life. But vocation is much widerthan that.By baptism each person is called to thefullness of Christian spirituality and holinessand each one is called to play a part in thebuilding up of the Kingdom of God. Priesthoodand Religious Life are special vocations,but so also is marriage. And, whether marriedor single, each person is called upon to use hisor her talents for the good of the community,to promote justice, peace, love and development.15
