History
In 1999 the Vocations Office was formally established within the structure of the Archdiocese. The Vocations office continued to work with the Vocations Team to bring displays and presentations about vocations to parishes and at Archdiocesan events.
Rev. Sylvain Casavant was appointed the first Vocations Director of the newly created office. Initially the office organized a number of initiatives including a Eucharistic Adoration for Vocations, the St. Therese Vocation Society, parish visits, reinvigorating the Serra Club in Edmonton.
