Bishop Murphy delivered this keynote address on the fundamental challenge faced by the Catholic Church to this very day – how to attract quality candidates to the priesthood. He concluded by stating, “There is a need today for stronger candidates for priesthood than ever before. That strength will be found in an understanding of the challenge that the Church itself offers to all of us as it fulfills its mission. To compromise on the need for candidates of strength and integrity for priesthood would be to compromise the mission of the Church.”
