| Home parish: Lexington, Resurrection Age: 27 Education: Lexington High School; University of Dayton (BA in Philosophy and German) Level: Fourth Theology, Pontifical College Josephinum | About the priesthood : Priests are a wonderful gift from God the Father because they continue the presence of His Son, Jesus Christ, among us today. Priests are instruments of grace who bring life, healing, and joy to us through baptism, confession, the Eucharist, and the other sacraments and through their service, leadership and love for us. I have personally known many holy priests who cared for and guided the people around them, introducing them to Jesus Christ. I hope that the Father will allow me to serve Him in the same way.
| Hobbies: I enjoy science fiction and fantasy novels and films, especially Star Wars and the Lord of the Rings, some Japanese animation, and comic books. I compose fiction and poetry when I can, play the violin, juggle, run or lift weights, stargaze, and bake bread. My greatest interests are, of course, Philosophy, Theology, and Sacred Scripture, which deepen my daily prayers and contemplations with the Lord Jesus.
