ROSARY RALLY FOR VOCATIONS

ESPAÑOL

Help Pray 75,000 Rosaries for Vocations

The Archdiocese of Omaha Vocations Office is leading its second-annual, month-long Rosary Rally in October to help encourage young men and women discerning vocations to the priesthood and religious life. We are seeking to increase our rosaries prayed this year to 75,000! All are invited to join in asking for Our Lady’s intercession in support of those discerning and living out their vocation!

This isn’t a single event, but a month-long campaign in October bringing the people of the Archdiocese together in person and online to pray the rosary for vocations.

How the Rosary Rally Works:
1. Pray the Rosary in October for Vocations.
2. Log your rosary on OmahaVocations.org
**You can also record it by emailing rosary@archomaha.org or calling 402.513.8569

Hey! I’m Zach Eischeid. I grew up in Elgin, Nebraska and belong to the Saint Boniface Parish. I attended Saint Boniface Elementary and graduated from Pope John XXIII Central Catholic High School. Saint Boniface Parish is a great place to learn about the Faith with our schools and to see so many parishioners helping each other and our parish in a myriad of ways.

My discernment has been around for as long as I can remember. Since I was a toddler, the priesthood always amazed me. However, around junior high, I kept pushing it to the back of my mind because I didn’t want to be labeled as that “extra-religious guy.” After graduating, I decided to attend Benedictine College to major in Theology. Towards the end of my first year at Benedictine, while at my sister’s wedding dance, I oddly had a strong feeling about seminary. A month later, I attended the priest ordination while teaching Totus Tuus, and started weeping during the procession in the cathedral. This sign was big encouragement in finally giving my future in God’s hands. I am currently at Kenrick Glennon Seminary in St. Louis and have made many fraternal friendships, as we are all on the same journey of striving to be what God wants us to be.

For all those with even an inkling about entering seminary, I encourage you to be open to it. Pray about it, frequent the sacraments, and remember: “You were not made for comfort. You were made for greatness.” And remember, every priest and seminarian has gone through what you are going through.

In my down time, I like playing any sport, especially basketball and baseball, jamming on the ukulele, listening to Christian rap, watching Nebraska football, and combating heresy.
