What is the average time it takes a Grad Schol High to become a Catholic priest?
why do you think you need to be a grad ???????
- Catholics - How many Masses on average it takes to get someone out of purgatory?
- What is the average cost you pay for a Catholic priest at your wedding?
- What is the purpose of consumption that takes snuff ball priest of the Catholic Church?
- Why the Catholic Church takes such a beating all the time, however, still exists after more than 2000 years?
- Why do so many Catholic churches statues of Mary? And keep your image in high esteem?
It completely depends on whether the person is going to be a diocesan priest or a religious priest. A diocesan priest has the equivalent of a masters degree in theology, which is normally a 4 years full time. Then spend some time as the duration of a transitional deacon (of time determined by the bishop) and then you are sorted.
Roughly I would say
4 years to obtain his BA in Theology / Philosophy
4 years to go through training for the priesthood and obtained his Masters in Theology and Pastoral
1 + years of serving as a transitional deacon
Or about the time they are 27-ish.
Shaun Why you do that? Being a priest of the Catholic Church?
about the amount of time it takes for a Catholic priest as an alter boy alone in a closet
I'm not sure (maybe about 7 years ?…) but try asking http://www.ewtn.org experts.
If you are considering the priesthood, CONGRATULATIONS! That ROCKS! I also feel called to religious life, and I'm probably going to enter the convent after high school / college.
