Welcome to Season 3 of National Vocation Fashion Week, where we put the spotlight on the call to holiness, which never goes out of style! In this episode, Fr. Joby Joseph discusses the vocations in the Syro-Malabar Church, Syriac vestments throughout a seminarian’s formation to priesthood, the topographical map of a Holy Qurbana, asceticism and the poetic nature of the Syriac tradition, important Syriac saints, their nine liturgical seasons and its narrative structure, the apostolic work of St. Thomas and our subsequent continuation of the apostolic mission, and the relevance of the Eastern Church today. To learn more about the Syro-Malabar Church, follow @SyroVocations.
