Vocation Story | I had thought about priesthood since I was in high school. I kept putting it off and making excuses not to do it. Finally God had enough of my excuses and the thought of priesthood came to me stronger than it had ever before. I then visited Mundelein on an Exploring Priesthood Weekend and I knew I could see myself living here. I then applied, and was accepted to study for the Archdiocese of Chicago. |
Priest Aspirations | Celebrating Mass |
