The Office for Priestly Life & Ministry seeks to support and encourage priests of the Diocese, active and retired, in their various ministries. PLM offers retreats, workshops, education and sabbatical opportunities, yearly convocation, transitional workshops, and newly ordained programs. The PLM office strives to develop programs and avenues to promote collaborative ministry. Through the PLM affiliation with NOCERCC (National Organization for Continuing Education of Roman Catholic Clergy), priests are made aware of regional and national opportunities for continued spiritual and ministerial formation and development. In conjunction with the Diocesan Bishop and the PLM Committee, this office works to promote the spiritual, physical, mental and educational health of all the clergy.
