Ambassador Program
The Catholic Church is facing a true vocation crisis. Fewer priests are being ordained, parishes are consolidating, and millions of faithful are left without spiritual leadership. But we believe God is still calling — and that it’s up to us to help young men hear that call and respond with courage.
If this mission speaks to you, we invite you to take one small step: fill out this form and a member of our team will be in touch to explore how you can get involved.
We’re building more than just a program
At Shepherding Future Shepherds we’re building a movement to elevate the priesthood, inspire new vocations, and renew confidence in our Church’s future. To do this, we need more than donations. We need ambassadors — friends who will walk with us, amplify the mission, and open new doors.
The Crisis
What is a Shepherding Ambassador?
Shepherding Ambassadors are not just volunteers — they are multipliers. Faithful individuals who believe in the mission and want to help us spread it. You don’t need to be a priest, a theologian, or a public speaker. You don’t need a lot of time. You just need a heart for the Church and a willingness to help us grow.
Expectations of an Ambassador
Whether you do one of these or all five, your role can be as big or as small as you’re able.
