    • USCCB Office of Vocations

  • Holy Orders is the Sacrament of ordination for leadership in the church.  There are three "orders": bishop, priest, and deacon.

    If you think that the Holy Spirit might be calling you to a life of ordained service in the Church, speak to a member of the parish staff.

    Visit the Diocese of Worcester's Vocations Office website, to learn more about the priesthood, the religious life (sisters and brothers, lay ministry), or the diaconate.

    To learn more about the diaconate, visit the diocese's Office of the Diaconate website.

  • I Will Follow

    I Will Follow, is a powerful 10-minute film by Ascension Press featuring the testimonies of Fr. Mike Schmitz and Fr. Josh Johnson and their journey to the priesthood.  Our hope is that I Will Follow will spark an interest in the Catholic priesthood by allowing viewers to identify with the priests in the film, seeing them as “real men” from the real world who heard God’s call to the priesthood and were courageous enough to say yes. The joy they have experienced in their vocation is a moving and powerful witness for the priesthood.
