Fr. Ronald Sams, S.J. |
“I would say there haven’t been many bigger surprises for me,” said the Rev. Ronald W. Sams, pastor of St. Michael Church and superior of a
group of eight Jesuit priests who live together near the downtown
church. “He sounds like a very pastoral, good man. He’s one of our
family. We’re very happy with the choice.” The Jesuits also
operate two venerable local institutions, Canisius High School and
Canisius College. “The fact he is a Jesuit makes it a little more
exciting,” said Kenmore resident and Canisius College alumna Meghan
Burke, who is currently doing graduate studies at Catholic University. Burke
has long appreciated the Jesuit order’s intense focus on education and
service. “It emphasizes an aspect of Catholicism that I think is quite
admirable,” she said.
