PEDRO MIGUEL RUBIO ATENCIO

My story begins in 6th grade when I served in the first Spanish Mass at Saint Faustina. At the time we were still in the school building and we’re just starting Spanish Masses. From then on I kept serving until 8th grade when, for rebellious reasons, I stopped serving and started caring more about worldly things. I was slipping for a long time but through the grace of God, in my junior year I felt called back to the Church through the priesthood at a Confirmation retreat in the spring. And life has been all the brighter ever since.
