Future priests of the Diocese of Bridgeport receive comprehensive formation in theology, pastoral ministry, personal growth, and, most importantly, the spiritual life at seminaries chosen by the Bishop to best suit the needs of the seminarian and of the diocese. Preparation for the Priesthood takes anywhere from six to eight years, depending on the age and educational background of the man when he enters. All of our seminarians receive graduate degrees in theology prior to their ordination. Through your generous gift to the Bishop’s Appeal, the Diocese will be better able to support men who are discerning priesthood and may respond generously and courageously to that call.
Thank you for your gift.
To make a gift, or for more information, please visit us at 2023BishopsAppeal.org, call (203) 416-1470 or SCAN with your phone.
