Receiving the sacrament of Holy Orders at ordination marks the beginning of a journey of ministry and service to Christ, His Church, and His faithful. As you celebrate these ordinations, we ask you to pray for an increase in vocations to the priesthood, as well as the continued success of the seminary.

Thirteen Saint John's Seminary seminarians will receive the sacrament of Holy Orders this spring and summer. The deacons will be ordained into the presbyterate across four dioceses and one religious community.
