Fr. Luke Sweeney and Fr. Luis Saldaña will lead the Fall Discernment Weekend for men ages 18 and up from the 13th to the 15th of November 2009. The weekend starts with 6:00 PM Evening Prayer in our magnificent chapel on Friday afternoon and will conclude about 2:00 PM on Sunday.
It is an opportunity to meet and to speak with other young men who are considering this profound calling to the Priesthood. There are also chances to meet with seminarians, both those who have recently taken the step out of the world and into the seminary, and those getting ready to step back out of the seminary and into parish life as priests. We will discuss who a priest is and what promises a priest takes (obedience and celibacy). There will also be an opportunity to hear a few young diocesan priests tell us what it has been like for them offering the sacraments, preaching, visiting and being with their parishioners whose souls have been entrusted to them.
