Eric Hernandez, CSP Ordination (May 20, 2023)

Congratulations Eric Hernandez, CSP

Ordained Saturday, May 20, 2023
at St. Paul the Apostle (NYC) by Cardinal Robert McElroy

Eric was with us for a year as a Pastoral Year Seminarian, from 2020-2021. He was very helpful in keeping ministry alive at Newman during our COVID lockdown and then when we had public Masses on the patio. Many of you probably remember his down to earth preaching. He also had a couple of live stream prayer reflections, helped us coordinate CONNECT, our ministry to match parishioners with each other each week, and led our adult confirmation class.

For this first assignment, he will be an associate pastor at the Cathedral at Grand Rapids, Michigan, where Fr. Dat is the rector. Come Fall, he will come visit and celebrate a Mass with us as a Paulist priest.
