About Me

Hi, my name is Leo and I call the Episcopal Diocese of Hawaii my home. I am also a Postulant being called to the Holy Order of the Priesthood. I will be/am working towards my M.Div at Virginia Theological Seminary in Alexandria, Virginia.

Road to Priesthood is my issue-focused blog, created for the purpose of challenging how we Christiansâ€“myself includedâ€“individually and collectively view the world around us.

Topics include (but is not limited to) politics, religion, and Christian culture.

Priesthood is meant as a way for us Christians to reflect and to question whether we are truly serving Christ by our actions.
