The Sacrament of Holy Orders

Holy Orders is the sacrament through which the mission entrusted by Christ to his apostles continues to be exercised in the Church until the end of time: thus it is the sacrament of apostolic ministry. It includes three degrees: episcopate, presbyterate, and diaconate.

Catechism of the Catholic Church 1536

Are you being call to the Priesthood?
Are You Being Called? “God chose us before the world began to be holy.” God has chosen each person in Christ for a particular vocation. If He may be calling you to be holy through a vocation to the priesthood or consecrated life, contact Fr. Kevin Cook who is the Director  of Vocations for the Diocese of Fall River. You can get his contact information and other information about a Church vocation from the Diocese of Fall River Vocation Web Site.
