Archdiocese de Santa Fe
Priest Convocation

Sept 29 - Oct 3, 2025

Please pray for the priests here at our parish as well as all the priests within our Archdiocese.

A priest convocation is a gathering of priests for spiritual renewal, education, and community building, with various themes and activities planned for each event.

Priest convocations are significant as they help strengthen the bonds among clergy, enhance their pastoral skills, and provide a platform for discussing important issues facing the Church today. They are essential for ongoing formation and support within the priesthood.

These gatherings are not only about professional development but also about deepening the spiritual life of priests and their commitment to their ministry.

Benefits to our Priests

Spiritual Renewal: The convocation serves as an opportunity for preists to rejuvenate spiritually and connect with their fellow clergy. It is designed to foster fraternity and provide a space for relaxation and reflection amidst their pastoral duties.

Educational Sessions: The Archbishop and other leaders will lead presentations, workshops, and discussions aimed at forming missionary disciples and addressing contemporary challenges within the Church.

Networking Opportunities: The event allows priests to network with one another, share best practices, and strategize on how to better serve their communities.
