Listen!
God is
Calling

When
Christians
talk about
having a
vocation
from God,
we are
saying
that God
calls us.
The word
vocation
comes from
the Latin
vocare,
which
corresponds
to the
English
"to call."
The first
thing you
say about
vocation
is, "Thank
you, God."
The fact
that God
talks to
us - that
God calls
us - is a
wonderful
thing. We
are not
left alone
to make
sense of
our lives.
We are not
left alone
to make it
through
the day.
The God of
the
universe
wants to
communicate
with us.
The Bible
talks
about
God’s
"Word"
because
God is a
communicating
God.
God’s
communication
has its
center in
Jesus
Christ.
God is not
distant
and out of
our reach,
a God whom
we can
glimpse
only if we
try very
hard and
do
everything
right.
Rather,
God is in
the midst
of human
life and
history,
in the
person of
Jesus. God
is in all
of human
life, even
death.
Nothing
can
separate
us from
the love
of God in
Jesus.
So, what
is God
calling
you to be?
What is
God
calling
you to do?
Come and
listen to
God’s call
while
surrounded
by God’s
creation
and
enveloped
by God’s
people.
Explore
your
vocation
and enjoy
the fun
and
adventure
of summer
camp at
All
Saints!
