Deacon Vincent Castaldi, one of the seminarians Cardinal Dolan will ordain to the priesthood on May 25, sat down with us to talk about the way God has worked in his life, setting him on a journey that led him to the priesthood.
During our discussion at St. Joseph’s Seminary ahead of his ordination, he talked to us about hearing God’s call and what he is looking forward to the most in his life as a priest.
Watch our discussion in the video above and keep our new priests in your prayers.
