Cardinal Dolan will ordain seminarians to the priesthood at St. Patrick’s Cathedral on Saturday, May 25, at 9 AM. One of the men being ordained is Deacon David Birkdale of St. Benedict’s Parish in Throggs Neck.
We went to St. Joseph’s Seminary a head of his ordination to talk with him about hearing God’s call and his journey to the priesthood.
Watch our discussion in the video above and keep our new priests in your prayers.
