A vocation to ordained service in the Church is a gift from God

As our Lord called his chosen twelve from among his disciples and as the twelve later called seven to the laying on of hands in order that they provide needed services to the Church, so also now are men called from among those who follow in Christ’s path. These men must strive for constant growth in the spiritual life through self-discipline and cooperation with grace.

If you perceive a call to ordained ministry in the Byzantine Catholic Church or if you simply have further questions regarding the ordained life, prerequisites, formation, or finances, feel free to contact the Eparchial Vocations Director: Rev. John R.P. Russell at [email protected].
