Last year saw the biggest number of men entering training for the priesthood in the past decade.

A total of 26 seminarians began the religious life last year, marking a significant turnaround for the Catholic Church.

A new ad campaign is being launched to bring young people into the religious life.

One in eight church-going people under the age of 25 told researchers from the Church that they would consider becoming a priest or nun.
