I would like to pose a question to those who have considered ministry or are in that field. What was your "call" to ministry? Was it a specific event or vision, or something more subtle? I am asking partly out of curiousity, and partly because I personally have not experienced a specific event, but rather it just seems like the natural path for me.

 Came across this fascinating capsule of the state of preparation for ministry in the United Church from the Accoutability Report of Enmmanuel College, as published in the Toronto Conference Resource Book
