"Put out into deep water and lower your nets for a catch." Luke 5:4

The Response Program is a process of ongoing prayer and discernment designed for adult Catholic men (college age and older) who have taken the initiative to express interest in diocesan priesthood.
• To provide for the spiritual growth needs of those who are looking at diocesan priesthood as a possible vocation response.
• To offer a forum for the mutual support needed for discerning a call to a priestly vocation.
• To bring together diocesan priests to assist participants in their discernment and movement toward decision-making.
All meetings are held from 6:00 pm until 9:00 pm in St. Paul Dormitory Lounge of Christ the King Seminary in East Aurora. Click here for directions to the Seminary.
