Who inspired you to be a priest?
My cousin, Fr. Rob Mulderink, was probably the man who most inspired me, besides my own father. Fr. Rob was such a shining example of a priest who loves the Lord more than himself, and it was while alter serving at his first mass that I resolved to enter the seminary.
What do you love most about the seminary?
The daily schedule of prayer. Our lives are really built around prayer and the Eucharist which helps us to keep our focus on Christ.
Why do you want to be a priest?
I want to be a priest because I desire to serve the Lord the best I possibly can. I always felt closest to the Lord while alter serving, and while helping priests, so I believe the Lord is calling me to the priesthood through those experiences.
What are you most grateful for?
I am most grateful for how easy the Lord has made it to pursue my vocation this past year.
