Diocese of Paterson Office of Vocations
737 Valley Rd.
Clifton, N.J. 07013
973-777-2955
Vocation Director: Rev. Hernan Arias

The Office of Vocations exists to promote, discern and direct priestly and religious vocations among men and women of the Diocese. Although a vocation begins with a personal call from God, rooted in Baptism, to serve God's people, it also involves a call from the Church, which discerns in an individual the necessary gifts for a life in Holy Orders or Religious Life. The Office of Vocations, therefore, is the vehicle by which the local Church of Paterson, through Bishop Serratelli, invites qualified men and women to consider committed ministry in the Church, and evaluates and forms potential candidates for priesthood. The Office of Vocations is part of the Division of Clergy and Personnel, and shares a work site with the Ministry for Priestly Formation and Education. The Director of Vocations is Rev. Hernan Arias; he is assisted by Rev. T. Kevin Corcoran.
