The Adopt-a-Priest Apostolate has met with great success, thanks to the efforts of Serrans and Catholics throughout the Archdiocese. As of today, 400 priests (out of 750 total) have been adopted by spiritual parents. That’s more than half the priests in the Archdiocese of Boston!
At our most recent meeting in Waltham, Mary and Francis Jesch noted that when they asked a woman in their parish if she would adopt a priest, she said “Yes – but how much will it cost?” She was amazed to find that spiritual adoption was free and that she could receive a booklet with a specific priest’s name at no cost.
Our goal is to have every priest in the Archdiocese of Boston adopted by the end of the year. Please adopt a priest today, and let others know of this worthwhile apostolate!
