The baptised share in the ministry of Christ but also pray for vocations to the ministerial priesthood, the

permanent diaconate, and the religious life (the later for both women and men). The road to ministry is not easy

but very worthwhile. Bishop Marcus is offering to personally meet with men 16 upwards thinking about ministerial priesthood on Pentecost Sunday at Hinsley Hall at 2pm. I am also happy to discuss vocations. As Jesus says,

“do not be afraid” and, as always, he is absolutely right.
