| Home parish: Perrysburg, Saint Rose Age: 20 Education: St John Jesuit HS; University of Toledo Level: Senior, Theological College, Washington, DC | | About the priesthood : To act in Christ's name as His priest is a dignity incomparable to anything else on earth or in heaven and a dignity that we cannot "purchase" through any effort of our own. Rather, this gift is given to us by Christ. Our own abilities and merits become merely secondary as priests - whether Christ calls one to be His apostle is the issue. | | Hobbies: My hobbies include singing, writing musical compositions, short stories, scholarly pieces or plays, reading just about anything, playing tennis and movie-going. | |
