​Vocation Brisbane recorded Fr Neville's Vocation story.  Please share - particularly with men who look like they have the capacity to be great priests. Don't be afraid to ask them the question: "Have you ever thought about being priest?" For me: once I heard that question it was only a matter of time that I had to answer the call to Priesthood.
