Thomas Aquinas College Produces a Harvest of Priests

This is the story we read from California Catholic Daily today!

Five alumni of Thomas Aquinas College in Santa Paula were ordained to the priesthood this year, bringing the total number of alumni priests to 47. The college also boasts 20 graduates who are religious brothers and sisters, and an additional 35 in seminaries preparing for the priesthood.

These numbers are especially striking for a small, private college with only 2100 alumni and a maximum enrollment of 350 students.
What wonderful news this is! Our Father in Heaven truly blesses those who are faithful and obedient.

CCD has an interview with Fr. Sebastian Walshe, a TAC graduate now belonging to the Norbertine St. Michael's Abbey in Silverado, California. It can be read here.
