Is there a website where you can view the country of origin of Priests and Seminarians of various orders and movements.
My interest in this is because in England we have a shortage of Priests. But I read an article on the web which was on Youth 2000 England and the number of young men in that organisation who were becoming Priests. 👍
The fact that caught my eye was that instead of becoming Priests in their own Diocese they were joining traditional ( loyal ) orders and movements instead. I wonder why :hmmm:
 
I think that some young men with a vocation don’t feel called to Parish life- there are other options now and Parish Priests are often lumbered with heavy duty accounting tasks and money management- I have a friend who made this decision and joined the redemptrists instead and is very happy!
 
Good to hear from you Fighting fit, the first person to reply to my thread is from Essex. I spent 16 years of my life in Romford, small world mate 😃
