We are excited to have a Seminarian Kevin Kolker with us for the Summer. Check out a little information about Kevin below! I was raised in a faithful Catholic family in Coppell, TX, and received solid faith formation through attending Catholic schools and the St. Ann youth group. Thanks to those gifts, God first put the priesthood on my mind in 8th grade as I was preparing for Confirmation. Throughout my years at Jesuit Dallas and Texas A&M University, God persisted in inviting me to discern the priesthood more intentionally, but I was sure I had a better plan for my life (spoiler alert: I was wrong!). After graduating from A&M with a degree in math and philosophy, I began working as a software developer in Houston. God, who uses all things in His Providence, made this a time of great growth and joy through unexpected friendships and quality time spent with Him in prayer. Finally, after coming to a deeper relationship with God through daily prayer, I realized that the Father only wanted my good and knew the best way to satisfy the desires He had given me. The past couple of years in seminary have certainly confirmed that! I am now studying at Notre Dame Seminary in New Orleans, have finished 3 years of formation, and God-willing I will be ordained a priest in 2023. Me crie en una familia católica fiel en Coppell, TX y recibi atravez de las escuelas católicas una sólida formación en la fe, tambien en el grupo de jóvenes de mi parroquia Santa Anna. Y gracias a esos dones Dios puso el interés en el Sacerdocio en mi mente cuando cursaba el 8o. grado y me preparaba para mi Confirmacion. A lo largo de mi estadía en la escuela de Jesuitas en Dallas y la universidad A&M de Texas. Dios persistía en su invitación para mi discernimiento al sacerdocio. Yo estaba seguro que yo tenía un plan mejor para mi vida. (Pero yo estaba equivocado!) Despues de graduarme en A&M con un título de matemáticas filosofía, comencé a trabajar como programador de software en Houston, pero Dios que usa todo en su providencia, hizo de este un tiempo de gran crecimiento y gozo; atravez de amistades inesperadas y un buen tiempo de calidad con El en oración. Finalmente despues de llegar a una relación más profunda con Dios a traves de la oración diaria me di cuenta que el Padre solo quería mi bien y sabia la mejor manera de satisfacer los deseos que me habia dado. Los últimos dos años en el seminario ciertamente lo confirmaron. Ahora estoy estudiando en el seminario de Notre Dame en Nueva Orleans, he terminado 3 años de formación, y si Dios quiere, seré ordenado sacerdote en el 2023
