The priesthood has always been essential to the life of the Church, from the time of Jesus until
today. Good Shepherd Sunday is the day we pray for vocations, for our priests, and take up the
Priest Training Fund second collection. This fund pays for the formation of men to become priests in
our Archdiocese.
After their ordination, our priests dedicate their lives to serving Christ and His people in our parishes, hospitals, schools, chaplaincies, prisons and in service to the needy, throughout South London, Kent and Surrey. We are blessed to have 3 men in formation to the Priesthood for our Archdiocese.
However, it costs £30,000 a year to sponsor each seminarian. They study for 6 years before being
ordained a Catholic priest. We therefore rely on your generous support and prayers. Please support our priests of the future with a gift today.
Thank you!
