Father Vince bought Ferdinand along to St Mary's today. Ferdinand is from the Philippines and spent 10 years in the seminary over there. He is now studying in Auckland and will be ordained in NZ and become part of the Palmerston North diocese. Ferdinand spoke to us about a vocation being a call from God. At the age of 16 he decided he wanted to be a priest but his parents and grandmother were not supportive. They encouraged him to experience the world first. As Ferdinand said, to have an appreciation of the world showed him how great God is.
