Priests

About

The life of a priest is full, demanding, challenging—and incredibly rewarding. In addition to administering the sacraments and leading prayer, there are many specialized ministries such as being a chaplain or working in diocesan offices. A majority of priests serve in parishes, building relationships with their parishioners and the community they serve.

Teach: Priests instruct others about the faith.
Shepherd: Priests guide, unite, and encourage their parishioners.
Sanctify: Priests administer the sacraments and encourage holiness.
