My Story
My path to the Seminary started as long ago as I can remember. I am the youngest of seven in a strong Catholic family. Since I was about 3, I heard God’s call to me. My family, my mother in particular, encouraged this but never pressured me. When I was 12 I went on a pilgrimage with the parishioners of St Patrick’s, my mom, and Fr Vetter. Obviously this was an incredible experience to see the Church in all her glory.
Throughout my Catholic education I felt “The Call” but in various strengths. I began dating. Then, in the midst of my relationship I visited my pastor, Fr Vetter, and he guided me to follow the call into the seminary. Since I applied I have felt an incredible joy and peace. The road ahead of me is long, but I know it is God’s will.
