Holy Orders

Men or women who wish to discuss the possibility of a vocation to serve Christ as a minister in the Church are invited to contact our Pastor, Father Pat,  or our Pastoral Associate, Sister Joanne Marie, or our Permanent Deacon, Dan Lowery.

​

Holy Orders is a sacrament by which men are ordained to be of service to the Church as priests, deacons or bishops.  While all the baptized are “ordained” to a life of service and commitment to Jesus Christ, the Church calls upon some of its members to serve the community in a different way through the Sacrament of ministerial priesthood.  The ordained have a unique role within the Catholic community.
