Questions about becoming a Catholic priest Christanon 05/18/19 (Sat) 23:18:36 aa3e82 No.808077

I've got a few questions about becoming a Catholic priest and i might ask more later on in this thread, here's some starting questions

1. How hard is it to become a Catholic Priest?

2. Do you become the priest in your local town or do you get assigned to a sorta local town that needs one?

3. If your town has multiple Catholic churches, do you go to them all?

>how hard is it to begome a priest?

You need to go to seminary lile you would college. On top of being celibate.

>2nd question

Depends on what you want and where the bishop wants you

>3rd question

No, you only go to one parish.

Of course I could be wrong. You are better off asking an actual priest than random strangers on the Internet.

>1. There is about 6 or so years of study into theology and the like. There is a bit of a "mental" evaluation by a Priest or Bishop or something, I use the word mental loosely. Its just to see if you have the aptitude to be a Priest, same thing with Nuns. And of course you need to be celibate, and not a homosexual. (That hasn't stopped many of them getting through anyway)

>2. You get assigned basically to anywhere that is in need of a Priest. Pretty sure theres a preference to put you in local area, but sometimes they may just chuck you somewhere new to give you that experience.

>3. A single Church. I'm sure there will be situations where you have joined masses with the other Priests of the other Churches.

Most of my information came from a mate in the seminary who will be ordained a Priest at the end of August. This is New Zealand, not sure if it changes anywhere else.

This is why I'd recommend a traditional seminary like the ICKSP, FSSP, IGS, SSPX. Or, join the Benedictine Clear Creek Monastery.

Go away, (((anti-christian))). No one believes you.
