DAVID SYLVESTER CAHILL
I first heard the call to the priesthood in 10th grade, during the 2020 quarantine. I noticed an attraction to the priesthood while living a simple life of prayer and work but was unsure of how to proceed. Throughout the rest of high school and a year of college, I had the priesthood in the back of my mind, but I never took the steps to follow the call. But at SEEK 2022, I finally talked to a priest about my interest and he put me on the path to where I am now.
