JEREMY ANDREW CASAL
I was raised in Round Rock, Texas, and I attended St. William Catholic Church almost my entire life. I always admired the priests at my parish growing up, and as an altar server people would comment from time to time that I would make a good priest. I started discerning the priesthood more seriously in high school, attending several discernment events hosted by my diocese. I graduated high school in 2019, and after a year as a NET Missionary, I realized that God was calling me to enter seminary. By His grace, I said yes.
