Holy Orders
The sacrament of Holy Orders prepares priests and deacons to serve the spiritual needs of others and gives special blessings to support them in their demanding vocation.
Priests who have received this sacrament can Celebrate the Eucharist and change bread and wine into the body, blood, and divinity of Jesus (a miracle called transubstantiation).
If you would like to explore a vocation to the priesthood, please contact:

Deacons who have received this sacrament are a sacramental sign of Christ the Servant who came not to be served but to serve others.
