Welcome to our new site! Wednesday, October 25, 2007
It’s always exciting to undertake a new venture! With that being said, we are excited to launch our new and improved website. We believe that you will find it more interactive, more inspiring, and more educational. As you can see, it has a completely different look. As time goes on, we will add new features to the site, including more videos, frequent blog entries, and, hopefully, podcasts. Our hope is that it will help you to come to a deeper love and appreciation for the gift of the priesthood as well as help you to discern God’s will for your own life.
Please help to spread the word about Catholicpriest.com. Come back here often to read the blog and to see what new features are on the site. Feel free to email me with any questions or comments.
Feel free to comment on the blog. All comments, before being posted, will be screened by Yours Truly.
Please remember to pray for our seminarians and priests. If you are a man who is discerning priesthood, spend some time on Catholicpriest.com and let the Lord speak to your heart. You may hear him calling to you: “Come, follow me…do not be afraid!"

Two seminarians ordained to the Transitional Diaconate - October 4, 2007
The statues,murals and other works of art that fill St. Peter’s Basilica are valuable. And those of religious persuasion would even argue that the bones of St. Peter, buried beneath that church’s high altar, are more so. But being ordained to tend Christ’s sheep in the proximity of Peter’s relics is certainly beyond price. Such was the case for two seminarians of the Diocese of Providence, who were ordained Oct. 4 to the transitional diaconate at the Altar of the Chair. Newly-ordained Deacons Jeremy Rodrigues of St. Elizabeth, Bristol, and David Thurber of Our Lady of Consolation, Pawtucket, will be ordained to the priesthood for Providence next summer at the conclusion of their studies.

Dear Friends,
I have a big audacious goal, and I believe the Lord has placed it in my heart. Some may call it too idealistic; others might say it’s simply unrealistic. But it’s a goal nonetheless; and if goals do anything, they keep us focused and motivated. However, to achieve this goal I will need your help. In fact, this
goal is unattainable without you. So from now on I'd like to call it OUR goal.
