Priesthood

The Diocese of Hamilton is dedicated to fostering and encouraging the vocation of Priesthood in young men of the Catholic faith.

A parish priest is responsible for administering sacraments, proclaiming the Word of God, and providing pastoral care for all parishioners, including youth, families, the elderly, the sick and the homebound.

Whether you are discerning a call to the priesthood or supporting a friend or family member pursuing a vocation, the Vocations Office is here to provide spiritual guidance and ongoing support.

May the Lord help you to know your vocation and to respond with an open and generous heart.
