A ‘Nod to you for the way you show up so genuinely in the work of vocations and for the heart you have for helping men discern the priesthood. Through your work with vocations in Detroit and Men of the Hearts, you’ve helped make conversations about priesthood feel approachable, honest, and full of hope. The way you talk about saying yes to God feels real—it comes across as something you’ve truly lived, not just something you teach. That kind of witness matters. Thank you for the way you encourage men to listen for God’s voice without pressure, but with trust, joy, and openness to whatever He’s asking. Your love for the priesthood and the care you have for the people you serve is so evident, and it’s clear that your ministry is helping others see the beauty of giving their life to God and His Church.
