Holy Orders and Religious Life

“Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet” 

— John 13:14


All baptized Catholics share in the Royal Priesthood of Jesus by virtue of their Baptism. However, some feel called to serve God through ordination to the diaconate, the priesthood or participation in religious life. The call to Holy Orders or Religious Life is a call to serve the church in a specific way, but a way that is equally special with any vocation that God may be calling you to. The following links will direct you to the various vocations offices of the Archdiocese. Fr. Larry welcomes the the opportunity to talk about vocations and to be sources of information, support, and prayers.
