This pamphlet is made available primarily for seminarians and young priests. The Catholic Church is the Church of the Eucharist. There can be no Eucharist without the priesthood. Therefore, vocations to the priesthood and the need for happy priests are of concern to every dedicated Catholic. It is suggested that after reading this pamphlet you share it with some seminarian and/or young priest. - HOW TO BE A HAPPY PRIEST I have been an ordained Roman Catholic priest for more than 50 years. I can tell you, and many who know me will tell you, that I am a happy priest. The reason I am happy is because I feel fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Although now in the practice of Christ’s holy priesthood for over 50 years, I still look for more opportunities each day to reach out to others for the good of their souls
and for the glory of God.
