“When I first applied to the Society, I had no thought of being a Brother. I had spent three years studying to be a priest and I assumed that I would continue building off of that.”

Highlights from Jesuit Life

The gift of the 30-day Spiritual Exercises. It was, in many ways, an intense experience and it continues to provide rich insights and topics of conversation with the Lord (as well as the Blessed Mother and some of the saints).
Being sent down to Belize as a novice and teaching philosophy at St. John’s Junior College in Belize City.
The countless mornings (and early afternoons) of spending time with fellow Jesuits over a cup of coffee in the dining room. Such moments remind me that we are companions of each other as well as of Christ.

Current Ministry: Currently at Bellarmine House of Studies in St. Louis studying history.
