What were you doing prior entering seminary?
I graduated with a Bachelor of Science with a degree of Sport Management from Texas A&M University in May of 2015. I was officially accepted by the Diocese on the day of my graduation.
What influenced your decision enter the seminary?
I attended an Awakening retreat my junior year in college, which reconnected my relationship with Christ. Six weeks later, on Easter, I began to discern seriously the potential of becoming a priest. In December 2014, I began the application process.
Advice to other men considering the priesthood:
A proper discernment starts with a constructed, healthy relationship with God. Know your faith and be involved in your local parish. Be patient with God, and look for Him to provide you the answers, and that only happens if you have relationship through prayer.
