ELI CHARLES WEIL
My vocation story started in my first year of high school at a retreat. I felt the call but was fearful of accepting it because I did not believe I could be happy outside of marriage. I felt this way for a couple of years until I took a trip to Rome with my class. The priest who was our chaplain inspired me to accept the calling I felt. After that I felt great peace and was happy with my decision.
