Chicago archdiocese ordains 16 Catholic priests

Chicago archdiocese ordains 16 Catholic priests

Here's some good news regarding the priest shortage in the US. I found it interesting that the Chicago Archdiocese had been seeing an increase in the numbers of its ordained every year since 1990.

However, the article also noted that several of the new priests come from outside of the United States which seems to indicate that work on improving the numbers of native born priests continues.
