The well-being of our retired priests, who have dedicated their lives to serving our community, rests in your hands. Your contribution is a testament to your gratitude and support for their lifelong commitment.
Your gift to the Diocesan Priest Retirement Appeal at our April 21 Masses provides vital funding for medications, nursing care, and more to these priests who have been good shepherds and have kept their promises to the faithful of the Diocese.
Throughout the Diocese of San José, priests serve as loving shepherds to their flocks in our parishes and ministries. There are 45 retired priests in the Diocese and 92 others currently serving in our parishes and in other diocesan assignments. In addition, the Diocese has 38 priests reaching retirement age (70 years old) in the next 12 years and 8 in just the next three years.
