Three years ago on the feast of Saint Anthony

….Archbishop Brunett ordained me for to the priesthood for service in the Archdiocese of Seattle.

If you’re a man discerning whether God is calling to the priesthood, be open. It is a great joy to live in service of the people of God!

Thank you to all who have offered so many kind greetings on my anniversary!

your brother in Christ,
Father Maurer

    Most gracious Heavenly Father,

    We thank you for our faithful priests and bishops, whose spiritual fatherhood and example of fidelity, self-sacrifice, and devotion is so vital to the faith of your people.

    May our spiritual fathers be guided by the examples of Saints Peter and Paul, all the Apostles and their saintly successors. Give them valiant faith in the face of confusion and conflict, hope in time of trouble and sorrow, and steadfast love for you, for their families, and for all your people throughout the world. May the light of your Truth shine through their lives and their good works.

    Assist all spiritual fathers, that through your Grace they may steadily grow in holiness and in knowledge and understanding of your Truth. May they generously impart this knowledge to those who rely on them.

    Through Christ our Lord. Amen

    Happy “Father’s” Day, Fr. Maurer!
