A ‘Nod to you for the way you have poured your heart into the students you’ve been called to serve. College can be a time of uncertainty, distractions, and big questions, yet you’ve created a place where faith feels real, welcoming, and worth pursuing. Through your preaching, your encouragement, and simply being present, you’ve reminded so many of us that God hasn’t stopped calling our names. Thank you for believing in us, challenging us to become saints, and walking alongside us with joy and authenticity. The impact you’ve made reaches far beyond the walls of the Newman Center, and I know countless lives—including mine—are better because of your faithful “yes” to the priesthood. May God continue to bless your ministry and all the students whose lives you’ll continue to shape for years to come.
