Congratulations! If you persevere, you must remember all of your CA friends when you offer the Mass!

HI Josh

This is my first message!

Congrats on your acceptance into Portland! I live in just 25 miles south of Portland. If you go up to Mt. Angel it is just a wonderful! A very scenic area as well.

My husband and I are new to the church and will start RCIA in July.

Congratulations on your acceptance. I wish you a great future!

Thanks everyone!

Becki, welcome to the Church! It is rich in culture, beautiful in truth, and everything you could have ever wanted. The people here at the CA Forums will help you with anything you need along your way. I'm honored to be your first post!

Also, I'm quite familiar with Mt. Angel, being I used to live there :-D.

Josh

Pray always that you may follow your vocation faithfully and that through you, God draws lost souls to Himself. The priesthood is an awesome calling and rest assured you will have the prayers of countless people here on earth- and the constant prayers of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and all the angels and saints.

Best wishes

Congrats!

I have been considering the priesthood for awhile (not really sure ), I think I may visit a seminary this summer just to check things out and mabe get a better sense if this is what He is calling me to or not.

Good luck and stay strong!

There's a perpetual prayer thread here for priests and seminarians - perhaps let them know you've been accepted so that their prayers can lift you up in your calling.
