Fr. Lopez opened the Speaker meeting with his warm smile and the Spirit filled the room as we listened to what he had to say about finding his way into the priesthood.

The Serrans and guests were captivated in the prayer that went into Fr. Mariano’s devotion of finding out what God wanted of him.  Father Lopez is personable and bright and he has a healing light about him. 

We are all blessed that he decided to go to St. Charles Borromeo and look around he saw one of his fellow class mates from UTEP and a sign of relief filled his spirit and he said these guys look pretty normal I think I can do this. 

Praying for what God wants us to do and Listening to him and then Asking God.  He always answers us. However we must remember it is in Gods time and not ours.

May the Good Lord continue to bless all of us. Praying for God’s will in our daily prayer’s.
