To receive Holy Orders in the Catholic Church, a man must be baptized and confirmed, be of appropriate age (usually at least 25), have a calling to serve as a priest or deacon, undergo theological and philosophical training, and be ordained by a bishop. The process also typically involves seminary education and a discernment period.
