    Young Priests: Take Courage // Fr Shane Sullivan

    “We need men to be fathers. We need priests to be fathers.” In this episode of Breaking Bread, Fr Shane Sullivan speaks with boldness, clarity, and joy about the priesthood—what it is, what it isn’t, and why the Church in Ireland desperately needs holy priests today. Fr Shane shares his own vocation story, the gift of spiritual fatherhood, why he wears a cassock in public, and how God forms men to lead with courage and love. This is a conversation full of hope, truth, and the quiet strength of a priest who knows who he is—because he knows Whose he is. Watch now and share it with someone discerning their path.
