Who Influenced/Inspired you to Priesthood: If I had not been influenced by priests such as Fr. Bill John Acosta, and Fr. Paul Parkerson than my decision to go to the seminary would have been more difficult.

What would you say to a young man who thinks he may have a vocation: Pray and take your time making the right choice. Even though you feel God's calling it takes time to fully understand what he wants. Praying and meditation will help you in your discerning.

Favorite Scripture Passage: Luke 22:42 This passage teaches us that we should always give ourselves to the Lord, and find refuge in him. Not only this but when one does so he learns that the will of God is stronger than a man's.

Favorite Saint: St. John of Vianney
