Vocations Summit 2024

Vocations Summit Flyer

The Vocations Summit will take place from Wednesday, July 31st to Saturday, August 3rd, Haciendo Caminos on the campus of Dominican University in Chicago, Illinois, in collaboration with the PASOS Network.

The summit will be a space for dialogue among U.S. born or U.S. reared young Latino/Latina Catholics who are discerning a call to ministry and leadership in Catholic settings, specifically by way of graduate theological education. Through prayer, conversation, and convivencia, the Vocations Summit will allow current and future young Catholic Hispanic leaders the opportunity to hear from renowned leaders in theology and ministry about the past, present, and future of Hispanic ministry, meet peers from around the country, and connect personally with representatives from all 18 Haciendo Caminos partner institutions.
