Since 1929, 922 priests have been ordained from the Melbourne seminary, Corpus Christi College, to work in parishes in Tasmania and Victoria. Among these 922 are two parish priests baptised and educated in our Sunbury parish: Fr. Paul Mercovich P.P. of Charlton & St. Arnaud in 1967 and Fr. Brian McMahon P.P. of Reservoir East in 1966. On this World Day of Prayer for Vocations let us pray some from our parish today will be open to the call as the need for more priests is so great that parishes like Altona and Woodend from this week will be sharing a priest from another parish. 58 of 238 Melbourne parishes now share a priest.
