In some areas of the country, temperatures have already begun to hover below the freezing point and meteorologists predict an even chillier winter ahead. If you’re like many Americans shivering in their boots, we recommend a trip that involves a little less salt on the road and a little more salt in the margarita.

When the weather up north is frightful, we suggest packing your bags and heading south! We’ve compiled our favorite 5 Warm Weather Winter Getaways:

VocationThe Office of Vocations for the Diocese of Houma Thibodaux exists initially as a response to Christ’s invitation to ‘ask the Master to ship out laborers into His harvest’. The harvest is considerable within the Diocese of Houma Thibodaux and our people want shepherds to lead them of their pursuit of a life of holiness. The Office works onerous to foster a tradition of vocations. We do that by helping our young folks to see that discernment of their vocation is likely one of the most essential things they will do as they attempt to comply with Christ. We make the most of formation alternatives, retreats, and one on one mentoring to present them the tools they should discern. We work with parishes, schools, universities, and youth ministry packages to identify young individuals who posses the qualities of a potential priest or non secular.
