Scotland’s 2 Youngest Priests Shepherd Souls in the Church That Endured

Meet Scotland’s Two Youngest Priests!

There is real hope for the Church in Scotland.

A recent feature highlights the stories of two of Scotland’s youngest priests, Fr Aidan Matheson of RC Diocese of Aberdeen and Fr Christopher Furmage of Motherwell Diocese, and their journeys to ordination and ministry.

At a time when vocations are often spoken about with concern, their witness is a reminder that the Lord continues to call, and young men continue to respond with generosity and courage.

Their stories reflect the quiet strength of parish life, faithful families, and the ongoing work of discernment supported by our dioceses across Scotland.

We encourage you to take a few minutes to read this uplifting piece and keep praying for vocations to the priesthood.

In a land long marked by reformation, suppression and the erasure of Catholic life, clergymen stand as powerful witnesses to a Church not merely surviving, but hopeful and unmistakably alive.
