Office of Priestly Vocations

Archdiocese of Detroit

The Office of Priestly Vocations, with the support of the Archbishop, is the chief promoter of vocational awareness for the priesthood in the Archdiocese of Detroit. The Office processes all candidates for the priesthood for the Archdiocese and serves as a bridge to build a culture of vocations within the Curia, parishes, and schools.

On the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception in 2020, we launched the tagline “Men of the Hearts” — as both the Immaculate Heart and Sacred Heart beat as one to animate the call in young men. It is Mary that brings us to Jesus, and it is at Sacred Heart Major Seminary that men’s hearts are formed after the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

May the Blessed Mother, mother of all priests, be the guiding star that accomplishes this great work for the building up of priests after the Heart of Jesus.
