■ Pope Says Vocations Should Be Priority For Vietnamese Catholics
BY JOHN THAVIS
%-
VATICAN CITY (NC) — The Vietnamese family should
be a center of faith, formation and prayer. Pope John Paul
II said during a wfeekly general audience at the Vatican.
' The pope said vocations to the priesthood and religious
life should be a pastoral priority for Vietnamese Catholics,
including those who have left the country. His main au
dience talk also dealt with vocations.
He spoke during his Oct. 28 audience to a group of 25 Viet
namese priests meeting in Rome to discuss pastoral care to
Vietnamese outside their homeland. A Vatican spokesman
said the Vatican had recently named Father Philip Hoai. a
^Vietnamese priest living outside the country, to coordinate
the program.
“Vietnamese families — including those in the diaspora
should be schools of faith and places of prayer, human
formation and apostolic spirit,'' the pope said.
The pope said he was following the efforts to develop the
pastoral program with great interest. He invoked the care
rof the Virgin Mary on all Vietnamese, saying: "May she
help you live in hope and courage. "
Vietnam's communist government has greatly restricted
religious worship and other activities, but a Vietnamese
♦bishop told the October Synod of Bishops that authorities
have recently shown some openness on religious affairs.

In his regular audience talk, the pope emphasized that
the call to Christian vocations often requires great
sacrifice, even to the point of martyrdom.
“To follow Christ often means to leave not only occupa
tions and cutting one’s ties with the world, but also remov
ing oneself from conditions of ease in life,'' the pope said.
“Not everyone feels they are called to this radical separa
tion," the pope added, noting that vocations often involve
divisions in a family.
But the pope said the vocation to faith and Christian iove
is “universal and obligatory. '
