Raising Catholic Kids for Their Vocation

By Claire and John Grabowski · Published by TAN Books

Overview

The mission of every married couple is not only to welcome children as gifts from God, but to raise them for heaven. In Raising Catholic Kids for Their Vocation, Claire and John Grabowski offer a practical, faithful guide to one of the most important responsibilities of parenthood: forming children who can hear and respond to God’s call.

Parenting is beautiful, exhausting, and often overwhelming. Amid daily responsibilities, parents are also entrusted with nurturing the gift of faith in their children and helping them discern their vocation—whether to marriage, priesthood, or religious life. This book provides clear, realistic guidance rooted in Church teaching and lived experience, helping parents turn the spark of faith into a lasting love for God.

Rather than abstract theory, the Grabowskis draw from their experience raising five children to offer practical ways to build a family culture of prayer, service, and witness. By making these practices a normal part of daily life, parents can create a home that supports their children in listening to God and following His will.

  • Practical guidance for forming children in the Catholic faith
  • Strategies for creating a home rooted in prayer and service
  • Insight into helping children discern their vocation
  • Real-life advice from experienced Catholic parents
