This year, our Provincial Superior Fr. Paul Keller, CMF is celebrating two milestones close to his heart: 30 years as an ordained priest and his 60th birthday. What a year of grace!
Afire with God’s love, Fr. Paul is living a life full of compassion, presence, and mercy. His 30 years as a Claretian missionary include:
- Campus ministry
- Prison ministry
- Street ministry
- High school ministry
- Migrant ministry
- Digital ministry
- Prayer ministry
“We’re all looking for the same thing. Everyone wants to have worth, to contribute, to be significant. And they’re going to find it in good ways or bad ways. Accompanying people in their lives means offering spaces where they can find their value.”
An avid car-camper and lover of poetry, donuts, and a really good joke, Fr. Paul wants to celebrate these two amazing milestones with you. He is inviting friends of the Claretian Missionaries to help raise $20,000 in donations to advance the Claretian mission here and around the world.
