Today, in Saint Patrick’s Cathedral, Archbishop Dolan ordained nine men to the priesthood of Jesus Christ. Here are two great shorts in honor of these extraordinary men who lay down their lives for all of us. May they enjoy long lives of service to Jesus and His Bride, the Church.
I’ll encourage Joseph to consider the priesthood, as I’ve done already. The same with my daughters and religious life. Who else will join Regina and me in encouraging our sons and daughters to give their lives to the Church? If not in priesthood or religious life, then living marriage as a sacrament, and the men considering the permanent diaconate.

What a lovely post and a truly beautiful and encouraging attitude, if I may say so.
Wonderful! May God bless all of these men in their vocation to the priesthood.
If I may ask, that you pray for a young man I know who completed a philosophy degree and just finished his theology degree at a seminary but has left. He no longer believes he has a vocation to the priesthood.
Please pray for him that he is able to discern the will of God in his life!
