Contemplating The Priesthood
At St. Mary's High School, where(you have got read this link>)Thomas Slabon recently graduated,
there are two other students contemplating the priesthood,
said religion teacher Kishanie Jayasundera.
Slabon wants to be a Jesuit priest. Link (here) to the Daily Gleaner
I once read some articles about the priesthood -- by St. Francis, I think. The process involved suffering, humility, and things that our society would consider "torture".
The process was intentionally brutal. I'd say that we've lost the true meaning of "calling" -- it has become intellectualized.
