Support Our Priests
Total Goal: $100 million

While we are investing in lay leader formation to support our faith communities, our priests will always play a central role in leading our parishes and renewal efforts. The archdiocese is committed to providing excellent educational offerings and to supporting priests from the beginning of their formation through their retirement.

Our comprehensive support for priests includes the following investments:

  • Seminarian Education: $14 million
  • Priest Pastoral and Professional Development: $23 million
  • Caring for the Health and Well-Being of Our Priests: $63 million

Being available for people during their spiritual needs helps me feel and be part of my parish community.”
