Palm Sunday Discernment Weekend

Is God calling you to be a priest? Are you interested in learning more about the priesthood? The seminary? Discernment? The Palm Sunday Discernment Weekend, March 28-29, 2026, is for any young man, junior in high school and older, interested in learning more about priesthood, seminary life, and vocations.

Spend time at St. Mark Seminary and meet the seminarians, pray with other men who are seeking to know God’s call for them, and learn more about how God is calling you personally for a special vocation. There is no cost to attend the weekend. Young men from dioceses other than the Diocese of Erie, such as Altoona-Johnstown, Buffalo, Greensburg, Rochester, etc. should contact the vocation director from their home diocese before applying.
