Priest of the Day
Today's 'Priest of the Day' is Fr. James O'Conner, a retired priest of the Archdiocese, ordained in 1954. As he was pastor of my home parish while I was growing up, I firmly blame him for my vocation to the priesthood. He accepts full responsibility with joy.

Is this the same Fr. O'Conner who was over at Holy Angels with Fr. Trick way back about 1980ish?
I am Fr. Kyle Schnippel and currently am the Director of Vocations for the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. I believe there is a tide of vocations to the priesthood and religious life waiting to happen, and as the faithful continue to grow in their own pursuit of holiness, these vocations will flourish.
For a highlight of posts over the last year or so, check the 'Top Ten' posts, which includes homiles, reflections, and even a version of my own vocation story.
