  1. Click here to view the video.
  2. Let the video load a little - notice that the bar at the bottom gets darker as more of the video loads.

Let us pray that this episode helps spread the word about Serra Boston, and provide more information on the ways people can support and encourage vocations to religious life.

Serra Boston web site upgrade

April 27th, 2008

The Serra Boston web site has been upgraded! The site should look the same, but is now powered by the latest version of Wordpress.

It is our hope that this web site will allow us to use the Internet as a communication tool to encourage, affirm, and promote vocations.

Keep checking www.serraboston.org for future enhancements!

Thanks to all who stopped by our booth at the recent Boston Catholic Men’s and Women’s conferences. We distributed information on Serra, gave away finger rosaries, served free Dunkin Donuts and munchkins, and sold the “Pray for our Priests” car magnets.
