Virtue
A virtue is a habitual and firm disposition to do good. It allows the person not only to perform good acts, but to give the best of himself. (CCC 1083)
Vocation
(Latin, vocatio, a calling). A calling to follow a particular career or occupation in life. Because they belong to Christ through baptism, all Christians have a vocation to become mature disciples of Christ and to become holy as active members of the Church community.
