5 reasons I love being a priest – in pictures

Posted on June 1, 2015 by Fr Kevin McKenzie LC

I sure love being a priest. Here are five reasons why in pictures:

 

1. Little Prayer Partners - Whenever I'm praying in the chapel and the students come into pray on their own, I get little prayer partners!

2. Altar Servers' Rules - Numbers 10 and 11 are my favorites!

3. Preschoolers - Nothing is quite as much fun as visiting the preschool - here we just compared their plush toy mass kit to the things I use at mass!

4. Catfish - The other day at a family picnic about 8 little boys and girls helped me land this catfish!

5. The Mass - Catching catfish may be plenty fun, but nothing beats getting to celebrate the holy sacrifice of the Mass every day. Nothing.

    Beautiful, Fr. Kevin! May God continue to bless your priesthood with the joy of God’s children and with the joy and blessings of the Mass!
