Who influenced your vocation? 
Many good priests over the years, especially Fr Meares, Monsignor Williams, and Monsignor Ingham. Countless others have helped to continually form me. The work is not done yet!

What would you say to someone considering a vocation?
Rejoice and be glad! Enter into deep prayer and entrust your vocation to Our Lord and Our Lady. You will have challenges and discouragement, but don't be afraid! We have been made more than conquerors.

Favorite Scripture passage 
At this point, there are many. Psalm 121 is a favorite, and the books of Ruth and Daniel.
