Clergy Training Fund second collection 2025

Raising for Catholic Diocese of Portsmouth

Event dates: Saturday 10 May 2025 – Sunday 11 May 2025

The Clergy Training Fund supports our seminarians, including the 11 men currently in formation for the priesthood, for the duration of their six or seven-year journey to ordination.

Each seminarian brings to his training his own life experience, and then participates in a comprehensive programme of formation pastorally, intellectually, humanly and spiritually.

These are the men who will baptize and catechize the coming generations, and care for us on our pilgrim way: our generosity today is a legacy to the Church of tomorrow.

To sustain a seminarian costs around £30,000 each year.

Please support our seminarians in their journey by making a donation to this Fund.   Thank you.
