A New Father

Posted by Clint Bergeron on Nov 2nd, 2007

I recently found out that a guy with whom I graduated high school is going through the discernment process for the priesthood. I’m happy to hear that. I think that he will be a very good priest and I pray that he is led by God to remain a priest. 

Ever since I heard this, I can’t help but see him in a completely different light. I really believe that the Holy Spirit changes a person when he/she makes the decision to dedicate his/her life to the Church. And I don’t mean strictly an interior change. Often you can see a look of peace on the face of a religious person. I guess the demeanor of the person changes to match the peace of the spirit. In some cases. In ideal cases. I’m an idealist.
