My vocation story begins when I was around 7 or 8 years old. As a seminarian, Father James Yamauchi showed the film “Fishers of Men” at my parish. After watching this, I felt the Lord calling me to the priesthood. However, as I got older, I focused on swimming. Despite success, something was missing in my life. Through obstacles placed before me, the Lord gently pursued me, and I ultimately gave up swimming and decided to enter seminary. I have never been happier.
