For my first post, I figured I would give some details about who I am and where I come from.

Born and raised in Waterloo ON, I grew up in a large family of nine kids. After completing grade school and high school in Waterloo, I went on to study mechanical engineering at the University of Waterloo. It was in my second year of university that I felt the call to priesthood.


A friend of mine was thinking of becoming a priest and invited me to visit a seminary with him. I went, not because I was interested in the priesthood, but primarily to support my friend when visiting a seminary just seemed like an interesting thing to do. However, as God would have it that experience would change the direction my life. While visiting that seminary with my friend, I felt God calling me to leave the university and become a priest, so after only two years of study I packed up my bags left for Toronto.


I first studied at Saint Phillips seminary where I gained my philosophy degree. Then I moved on to Saint Augustine seminary for theology. Having completed my studies in 2016 I was ordained a priest for the Diocese of Hamilton.


Only being a priest for seven years I have served in four parishes. My first assignment was Saint Matthews in Oakville. Then I moved to Saint Catherine of Siena in Hamilton. And just before coming to Saint Mary and the Missions I spent five years at Our Lady of the Assumption Parish in Stoney Creek.


God has challenged me to be docile to whatever he asks throughout my life. Though I cannot say it’s always been easy to say yes, I can say that every challenge has been met with an overabundance of blessings. I look forward to what God has in store.


Please pray for me.

Fr. David

Assignment writing services can be tempting for students on a budget, but it's crucial to proceed with caution. While they may offer lower prices, the quality of work often reflects this. These services may employ inexperienced writers, produce plagiarized content, or lack proper support. It's essential to prioritize quality over price and carefully research potential services, checking reviews and testimonials from previous clients. Choosing a reputable service, even if slightly more expensive, can ensure higher quality work, better support, and a reduced risk of academic penalties.

It is frequently necessary to balance other academic obligations, such math lessons or homework in other topics, in order to prepare for a math exam. Some students decide to pay someone to do my online math class in order to relieve this burden and free up time to focus on difficult concept of math.
