TIMOTHY MICHAEL SPJUT
I grew up as a cradle Catholic in a family of one brother and five sisters. There were plenty of things that I prioritized over my faith, such as sports and school, so I was never happy or at peace. This changed, though, after high school when I began to question my purpose in life. Ultimately my purpose was found in God, and after realizing this I never looked back. As I have fallen deeper in love with prayer, with the saints, and with the Mass, I have felt God calling me to the priesthood.
