As of this writing, we are one week away from (God willing) Evan’s ordination to the priesthood. To be completely honest, it’s all a bit overwhelming.
Earlier today the Paulists released a brief video profile of Evan in which he talks about his calling, how this blog started, the broader Paulist family and how he prays with bread. If you have four-and-a-half minutes, I think it’s worth watching. (Of course, I’m Evan’s dad so my opinion in this matter is not especially objective.)
Thank you all for your prayers for Evan and for all of us. Please continue praying and, if you can, please join us for the livestream of the Ordination at 10:00 a.m. Eastern on Saturday, May 18, 2019. You can find the stream on the Paulist Fathers Facebook page or their YouTube channel.
Finally, if you think you might be called to be a Paulist, you can learn more at the Paulist Fathers Vocations page.

Seminarian Parents 
Thank you on your ministry to seminarian parents. Prayers to Evan and your family! Maybe you will continue by expanding on being the parents of a newly ordained priest? God bless!
Thank you for the encouraging words and prayers. I think there’s definitely a chance that we’ll be posting a few post-ordination thoughts.
He’s a brilliant, wonderful young man. Congratulations Cummings family. You will be in our prayers on that blessed day.
Thank you for the kind words and the prayers…both are much appreciated.
