Provide an insight into your Vocation story - what and who led you to Seminary?

Growing up in the faith was important to my family. As I prepared for Confirmation two graces happened. One was a deep personal growth of faith. second a deep desire to share this Faith. I also had great priest who modeled the priestly life for me. In high school I found myself on discernment retreats. It was there I heard the call as a deep desire in my heart to serve the church as a priest of Jesus Christ. So Senior year of high school I applied to Seminary and now 8 years later I prepare for priesthood with great joy.
