August 27, 2020This is part of a series to introduce the seminarians of the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City.
What is your home parish?
My home parish is Saint John the Baptist in Edmond.
What seminary do you attend?
I attend Conception Seminary College in Missouri.
If it is God’s will, what year will you be ordained a priest?
God willing, I will be ordained a priest in 2028.
What advice would you give to someone discerning a call to the priesthood?
A great piece of advice that helped me to discern was to always try and go see Jesus in adoration at least once a week.
What do you look forward to most about becoming a priest?
I look forward most to celebrating the Mass, and through the words of consecration turning bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Jesus.
Name one thing that every Catholic needs to know.
Every Catholic needs to know that in the silence of prayer God will meet you and talk to you. Make time for daily silence, even if it is only for five minutes. God will meet you there.
Why choose a life of sacrificial love?
I choose a life of sacrificial love because that is what Jesus did. He died for me and I want to give my life, that was never mine but always his, in shepherding his flock.
