Sept. 15, 2024 | Baltimore archdiocese welcomes increasing number of seminarians

In June, Archbishop William E. Lori ordained six men to the priesthood for the Archdiocese of Baltimore at the Cathedral of Mary Our Queen. The year before, he ordained eight to the priesthood, which was the biggest class of new priest in the Baltimore Archdiocese in more than four decades. And in 2022, there were five new priests. George Matysek talks with Father Steven Roth about the increasing number of men stepping forward to discern a call to the priesthood and the impact that more priests is having on ministries throughout the archdiocese. Father Roth is vocations director and Associate Vicar for Clergy for the Archdiocese of Baltimore.
