– a seminarian from the Diocese of St. Augustine, participated in both the packing and the mission trip. He shared that he was motivated by his desire to experience the needs of the poor and by his interest in foreign cultures. For him, this was more than just a simple volunteer opportunity. He set out with the mindset that he and his fellow seminarians would grow in holiness as they learned from Guatemalan families’ simple way of life, and he considered the trip an important part of his continuing formation in preparation for the priesthood.
