Thoughts on Priesthood:

The thought of priesthood is an interesting one. I sometimes wonder why I have to wait 8 years to be ordained and other times I are more than greatful that I have that time to prepare. With Christ as my highpriest as a seminarian I hope that I can be a man for Christ and a priestly man of the Church. Priesthood is love, love for the Eucharist and love for the church.

Why I want to be a Priest:

The life that a priest lives and the work that he does (and the fact that it is all tied to Christ and the Eucharist) is what drives me to seek, God willing, the priesthood. Simply it is Love, love for Christ, church, and the Eucharist.

Hobbies & Interests:

baseball, traveling, cooking, bowling, hanging out with friends and just having a great converstation

Influence:

The greatest influences in my life would be my seminarian brothers, my grandma, Cecilia Henrich, Fr. Jerry Cosgrove and Fr. Merlin Shrad.
