What has been your favorite/most memorable story of your time at Mundelein thus far? | The most important experience for me in my first year at Mundelein has been joining my brother seminarians for Morning Prayer and Mass in the chapel. The first week I was trying to figure out the psalter and hymnals and I remember feeling still like an outsider. But by the second week I felt a part of the community and privileged to be part of this community. It is a joy to come together for prayer and celebration of Eucharist in the morning with so many other men striving to grow closer to Christ and pursuing the priesthood. |
