I studied full-time at the University of Dallas while also engaging in intense formation as a seminarian preparing for the Catholic Priesthood. I led and organized all liturgical functions for the first-year seminarians and trained other seminarians to participate in them, serving as liturgical ministers and musicians. The formation in this work targeted human, spiritual, intellectual, and pastoral development.
I served as the Coordinator of Chapel Team for the 4th Quarter of the Academic Year.
In this role, I was responsible for overseeing all liturgical ministries that occurred on
campus, as well as the preparation and planning of every All-School Mass. I led a team
of 8 other college students with specific roles within our ministry in helping them use the
skills they have learned to be successful. I also worked closely with our Coordinator of
Catechesis on the careful planning of the liturgical life of the college. In this capacity, I
was also responsible for the ordering of all items needed for our liturgical ministries.
