Historically, there have been many people who followed a religious vocation. Whether monks, nuns, priests, or other religious positions, these people chose to dedicate themselves to their religion and forego much of secular, "worldly" life. Why did people choose this? What did their lives look like? How did they spend their time, and what impact did they leave on the world? From cloistered nuns to missionary Jesuits, we trace the history of religious orders and vocations.
