I have a particular devotion to the poor souls in purgatory

I grew up Catholic and at a young age had a special devotion to Our Lady and the rosary. The idea of priesthood had been presented to me periodically, but I questioned whether it was something I personally wanted or if it was just something others “saw in me”. In high school, I began to doubt my faith and ask a lot of questions. As I searched for answers and learned more about the Church and its practices, I began to desire a deeper relationship with Christ and His Bride. This continued through college and into the working world. As I continued to grow in my relationship with Him, I saw the blessings and generosity of the Lord; experiencing His deep love for me. It is this love and generosity that made me decide I wanted to be generous with Him and answer the call to feed His sheep.

Sharing the grace, power, and love of Christ through the sacraments

I’m just starting, but looking forward to making many memories here!

Please ask the Lord to give me a heart of compassion for his people, meekness, and humility and to endow me with the courage necessary to carry out His will.
