As ordination time has come and three new priests are welcomed into our diocese, I feel a little nostalgic as I recall my own ordination to the priesthood. As these days arrive, I also feel a strong gratitude to God for all the opportunities He has given me in my life and for allowing me to get to where I am today.
How full of grace and worthy Mary was to be chosen as the most beloved spouse of the Holy Spirit. Within her womb the Spirit conceived our Savior, the Savior of the world, the King of the Universe.
