Birthdate: March 21st, 2002

Home Parish: St. Jerome Parish, Battle Creek
   
Why did you become a seminarian: I had a desire for priesthood from an early age. After learning more about what the life a priest entailed and ministries that a priest has, my desire has only increased. Being a seminarian is a privilege and a grace.

Who is your favorite Saint and why: My favorite saint is St. Mary Magdalene. She is always near the foot of Our Lord in humble adoration. Thats where I desire to be.

What are some of your hobbies: Music is my biggest hobby. There is not a day I do not sing, play an instrument, and or listen to music.

What advice would you give to someone discerning the priesthood: Firstly, keep your ears open to the Lords voice. Secondly, Get in contact with Fr. José Haro and inquire about a visit to a seminary. A simple visit to the seminary will tell a man plenty about the daily life of a seminarian. Lastly, a visit to the seminary is not a final commitment- Its merely seeking an avenue that a man may feel called, and will be very helpful in knowing if thats where he is called. Alway rejoice in the Lord.

Please keep Adam in your prayers!
