The Grace of the Priesthood

Pray for vocations, that you may get priests who live and teach the Faith. Do you have twenty-eight minutes to spare? Here are three videos, about nine minutes each, put out by the FSSP, called "To God Who Giveth Joy To My Youth."



If you have never attended a Traditional Latin Mass, be prepared to see God glorified in all His Majesty, as these videos will show.

Holy, holy, holy

Pope Benedict XVI, ordination Mass at St Peter's Basilica, June 20, 2010

You can watch a traditional ordination May 30 on EWTN

Be sure to tune in to EWTN on May 30 (the feast of the Sacred Heart) to watch the priestly ordinations of four FSSP deacons to the priesthood. This will be the first time a traditional ordination has been televised on EWTN. Cardinal Dario Castrillón Hoyos, the President of the Pontifical Ecclesia Dei Commission, the Vatican office concerned with the Traditional Mass, will perform the ordinations. Mark your calendars!

Helping hands

If you would like to help out a young man who is discerning a vocation to the priesthood, check out this post at Per Te Sancta Maria. AquinaSavio, (his blogging name) is applying to the FSSP seminary in Nebraska, and several of his friends, myself included, encouraged him to place a PayPal button on his blog to help him with the expenses he is facing for a pilgrimage to World Youth Day and seminary expenses. I challenge all my blogging buddies and readers to make a donation for this intention. We need good, holy priests. God will reward your generosity, I'm sure.

A day in the life of vocation discernment

From the blog Catholic Tradition, here is a post about a day in the life of two young men who are discerning a call to the priesthood, who spent a week at the the Gricigliano Seminary of the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest (ICRSS), in Tuscany, Italy.
