One thing many Catholics of today long for is authenticity in other people. It is only a real encounter with authentic holiness that often sparks the flame of faith and a true desire for God. Our seminarians, who are discerning God's call to the priesthood, are preparing themselves to be the spiritual leaders and fathers for the people of our diocese. We need authentically holy priests if we are to continue the renewal of the Church and bring all peoples to union with God.

Yet we are one mystical Body of Christ. We cannot be mere passive observers in the growth of the Church. We are called to support each other by prayer and works of charity. We have an essential role to play in the formation of our priests! They need our prayers as much as we need their prayer and spiritual guidance. Please consider taking a concrete step in the renewal of the Church by committing to pray daily for a particular seminarian of our diocese. The committment is to pray one Hail Mary daily for your seminarian, although whatever you desire to do beyond that is certainly welcome and encouraged! Contact us below for more information!
