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 Jonathan Castro of Our Lady Queen of Martyrs Parish (Manhattan).
We sat down with him for an interview at St. Joseph’s Seminary ahead of his ordination to talk about hearing God’s call and how he sees his mission as a priest for God’s people.
Keep our new priests in your prayers and visit https://nypriest.com/to learn more!
