To: Lord Washbourne
The Archdiocese of Washington attracts vocations from other dioceses.

Fair enough.

But are you saying that people with vocations gravitate to DC and Southern Maryland, then contact the ADW vocations director?

Or are you saying that diocesan priests ordained in other dioceses then transfer to DC following their ordination or during their seminary formation?

If the first is true, then good for ADW! The other dioceses should figure out how ADW attracts them.

If the second is true, then how is it that the seminarian's/ordinand's ordinary releases them to do the transfer? Particularly with the current shortage of priests?

Not trying to start something, it just doesn't make sense to me.
