    I am a seminarian residing in the Philippines, and I am currently in the Novice stage of my formation. This video greatly motivates young people to respond to God's call to priesthood. I kindly ask for your prayers for an increase in priestly vocations. Thank you.

    I'm a missionary Society of African Missions. I was ordained in 2023 17th of May. Working in the very rural areas in Liberia, Cape Palmas diocese.
    My desire was to be a Soldier of my country India but God Jesus called me to be his soldier for the kingdom of God.
    A priest is first of all the priest of God and second he is the priest of the people of God.
    Please keep me in your prayers. May God bless. Amen.

    I live in Maryland and I have a strong call since the age of 15. My biggest struggle was discerning if I am calling myself or if the Lord was calling me. I hope to join the seminary next year.

      I’m a 26 year old single man and I want to be married but cant find a wife, and I really want to have a family. Is struggling with women an indication that I have a calling to the priesthood? I have had countless talking stages with women and one failed toxic relationship just this year, and im worried I will never find the right woman. I have no interest in the priesthood or religious life or being a permanent bachelor. Been praying to meet my future wife for years but my prayers seem useless. Everyone I know is already in a relationship or engaged and they’re younger than me. I have strong sexual desires that are not sinful, but they’re painful because they’re unfulfilled. Im starting to believe that if God wanted me to find someone special, it would have happened by now.
      Im tired of hearing “God’s timing” and “Gods plan” when im just constantly lonely and sad. God doesn’t care that I want a family, let alone a good woman. God would rather have me be depressed and wishing I got married every day instead of actually being married. I do my best to stay physically active. I run 20 miles a week and lift weights. But im short at 5’8. Im feeling desperately lonely. Im worried just because I am worried that struggling to find a wife means im called to be a priest.

      In the USA there are a couple seminaries that specialize in formation for mature seminarians being called at an older stage of their lives. My parish priest was ordained after he was 60 years old, being a widower. He is a great priest, praised be the Lord for giving him to us as a shepherd like Him. The answer is to reach out to your priest, and the vocations office for the archdiocese, and they'll arrange for everything.

    I am not sure what the Church is being changed into. I would love to be a priest. I am not sure I am the right person now. At one time maybe. But I wish I could, but the Church is being altered, seemingly, and that is one reason I wonder about it. It is so arrogant to want to think we can preserve traditional values and Latin Mass while Vatican is acting so radically. I am worried for Our Church. The pre Vatican 2 generation will not be on earth soon. Jesus help me start with my faith, so I can do as you wish. Lemme know. That's what I think often.
