I began going to daily mass when I was in kindergarten and have gone ever since.  As soon as I received my First Communion I began to altar serve, already drawn to the altar with a fascination for the Mass.  From there I continued to serve and when I was in the sixth grade I joined a young men’s group called Fraternus.  There I received formation and the tools I needed to build a personal relationship with Jesus, who then affirmed the desire on my heart to be a priest.
