Holy Orders
The Sacrament of Holy Orders
“The sacrament through which the mission entrusted by Christ to his apostles continues to be exercised in the Church until the end of time: thus it is the sacrament of apostolic ministry. It includes three degrees: episcopate, presbyterate, and diaconate.”
The Office for Religious in the Diocese of Providence provides support and services to the hundreds of religious men and women who reside within the Diocese of Providence.
A number of religious orders perform critical ministry throughout the Diocese in service of Christ and the faithful. For information click here https://dioceseofprovidence.org/office-of-religious
