Reason for Applying: The reason for my application is that I believe God has called me to serve the Archdiocese as a priest, and that whatever God asks of me is what I desire to accomplish, as Christ accomplished mankind’s salvation through His love for the Father. I believe that God is calling me to do likewise; however lacking I am for such an imitation. What does the priesthood mean to you: The Catholic priesthood is a supernatural and merciful gift. Not only does God enter into the life of the priest, but through the priest another Christ goes out to suffer and die for His people. This is a powerful reality; the priesthood is the means by which many can come to Christ on earth, and to meet Him fully in the life to come. |
