Holy Orders is the sacrament through which men receive the power and grace to perform the sacred duties of bishops, priests, and deacons of the Church. Christ Himself selected and ordained the first bishops, the Apostles. They then, following the will of Christ, consecrated other men as bishops and ordained priests and deacons.

If you are a young man or know one in the Sacred Heart Community who shows interest in becoming a priest, or if you are a male parishioner interested in being a deacon, please contact Fr. Mark for important information about the steps required to obtain these goals.
