Father Jason Hage interviews Father John Manno, Pastor of Holy Family Church in Fairmount and the Vicar for Priests for the Diocese of Syracuse, on the impact of being "called by name." Father Manno shares his powerful testimony of how his home parish literally called him by name when he was in high school. His childhood pastor organized a weekend whereby parishioners wrote the names of the young people in their parish who they thought would make a great priest and/or religious. Father Manno was shocked when his pastor handed him a stack of index cards submitted by parishioners all with his name on it! His story demonstrates the power of lay people calling forth vocations to the priesthood and consecrated life from their parishes.
