Diocese of Fall River
Serving the Shepherds Fund

There is no flock without its shepherds; we must strive to support the well-being of our priests. Your gift to the Serving the Shepherds Fund will help aid in the promotion of vocations, the formation of future priests, and the support and ongoing care for our active and retired clergy in the Diocese of Fall River.

Gifts to the Serving the Shepherds Fund will be used to: 

• Support the Cardinal Medeiros Residence, home to many of our retired priests;
• Provide medical and dental insurance for retired priests and contribute to the clergy pension fund;
• Offer tuition, room, board, and medical insurance for our seminarians;
• Help the Office for Vocations guide men as they discern their unique calling;
• Fund the Director of Clergy Support Office and the diverse range of programs it offers, which minister to priests at all stages of their priesthood.

Thank you for your support of our wonderful priests: past, present, and future!
