A letter from Father Brian Buettner, Vocations Director
When we celebrated the beginning of 2020, we never expected our lives would change so drastically due to the coronavirus pandemic. Thankfully, with the temporary transition to all things virtual, we had many tech-savvy priests, parishioners and staff who were able to continue sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ.
These priests sacrificed and worked to find every way they could to celebrate Mass and provide the faithful the seven sacraments. Mass and the sacraments would not be possible without a priest. Today, I ask you to consider a gift to the archdiocesan Seminarian Education Fund.
We are incredibly blessed this year with 25 young men continuing their studies to conform their lives to Jesus Christ as his priests. The Seminarian Education Fund is a chance for every family in the archdiocese to say “Yes” to our future priests, so they are able to say “Yes” to their call to the priesthood.
In a special way, I ask you to prayerfully consider becoming a member of the Living Faith Society with a Monthly gift of $50 per month, $2 per month for each of the 25 seminarians. Monthly support from members of the Living Faith Society help us ensure the ongoing expenses of priestly formation are met.
Please use the calendar below to pray for the seminarians each day. May the young men who God is calling to the priesthood respond generously, always assisted by our prayers for them!
Sincerely in Christ,
Rev. Brian Buettner
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
The seminarians of the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City are preparing for a lifetime of priestly ministry among the faithful in central and western Oklahoma. Every priest is ordained to bring people to Jesus and to bring Jesus to his people. It is a joyful life of service and sacrifice. I am proud of our seminarians’ dedication and commitment as they respond to God’s call.
Your prayers and support are greatly appreciated and allow these men to continue discerning their vocation. I ask that you to prayerfully consider supporting these men with your financial offering. By joining the Living Faith Society with a monthly gift, your gift will support seminarians and future priests for generations to come. Thank you!
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Most Reverend Paul S. Coakley
Archbishop of Oklahoma City
