Catholic Priesthood
The Catholic Priesthood is a sacred ministry within the Roman Catholic Church where individuals are ordained to serve God and the community. Priests perform various religious duties, including celebrating the Eucharist, administering sacraments, and providing spiritual guidance to their congregations. They are seen as mediators between God and the people.
To become a priest, candidates typically undergo extensive education and training, often attending a seminary for several years. The priesthood is considered a lifelong commitment, and priests take vows of celibacy, promising to dedicate their lives to serving God and the Church.
