The Sacrament of Holy Orders and Vows of Religious Life
Please pray for vocations to the priesthood, diaconate and religious life and encourage a religious vocation in your home. For information, please speak with one of our priests, Deacon Tom or Sr. Ann or visit our diocesan website www.fallrivervocations.org
Permanent Diaconate
Permanent deacons are qualified laymen who, after being trained by the Diocese, are ordained by the Bishop to serve the needs of the parish and the Diocese. The training involves a 5-year program and new candidates will be notified when the next 5-year program will begin.
