“Witness the holiness of people’s lives. For me the reward or fulfillment is in the challenge people bring to me in ministry. After so many years of preparation, formation, theology, study—suddenly, people come with profound human experience of falling in love, feeling betrayal in marriage, losing a child in death, or watching their career crumble before their eyes and they preach to me of what the passion is. I mean I suddenly realize I am on holy ground when I listen to them telling their story. As good as my formation was, and I tremendously reverence it, I’m grateful for the formation we were given, my education came later I think. It came after I was ordained. It is just the holiness of people’s lives that I find so rewarding. It is a real privilege to be there and have people break open their experience with me.”
Fr. John Conley, CP, 6.1.08
