Holy Orders
THE SACRAMENT OF HOLY ORDERS
Holy orders is the sacrament through which the mission entrusted by Christ to his apostles continues to be exercised in the Church until the end of time: thus it is the sacrament of apostolic ministry.
(Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1536)

IS GOD CALLING YOU TO RELIGIOUS LIFE?
God calls each of us to a unique vocation - a particular way of loving Him and serving His Church. For some, this call is to the vocation of marriage; for others, God may be calling them to the priesthood, diaconate, or consecrated and religious life.
A vocation to religious life is a beautiful invitation to give oneself entirely to Christ, through prayer, community, and service to others.
​
If you feel that God may be calling you to the priesthood or religious life, do not be afraid to take the first step. Feel free to contact the Parish Office to arrange a meeting with Father Charles for prayer, guidance, and conversation about your vocation.
Please also explore the resources below for more information and guidance as you discern God's call.

"Jesus, my love. At last I have found my vocation. My vocation is love.
In the heart of the Church, my mother, I will be love, and then I will be all things."
- St. Thérèse de Lisieux
