Welcome
A calling to the sacred priesthood of Jesus Christ is one of the most beautiful gifts that a Catholic man can receive.
The Roman Catholic Diocese of Altoona-Johnstown comprises 8 counties in central Pennsylvania: Bedford, Blair, Cambria, Centre, Clinton, Fulton, Huntingdon, and Somerset.The first priest to serve in the diocese was Fr. Demetrius Gallitzin.
If you are discerning your vocation and are wondering if you are called to the priesthood, there are many resources on this site that can help. Nothing compares to direct contact with a priest, however. Consider contacting your parish priest or the Director of Priest Vocations, Fr. Peter Crowe, to discover what God may have in store for you!
