In his words: "As a St. Stanislaus student in junior high, I chose to be part of the religious life study group to understand more about religious life, particularly as a Brother of the Sacred Heart. Six years ago, I felt called again to pursue understanding of the diaconate. Now that diaconate formation is nearing completion, I am filled with peace and eagerness and humility to be of service to Archbishop Rodi, my pastor and my community."
