Watch: Diocesan Services Story #1 | Seminarian Education | Randy Koenigsknecht

We hope you enjoy this short message from Randy Koenigsknecht who is one of the Diocese of Lansing's 26 seminarians.

Randy says that after discerning a call to the sacred priesthood, the next big question was: "How will I pay for this Lord? How is this going to happen?"

The answer? Your generosity towards the annual Diocese of Lansing Diocesan Services Appeal (DSA) which funds seminarian education. Thank you. God bless you.

"[The Lord] chooses to use the people of our diocese. It is through the DSA that the Lord provides for us," says Randy who hails from the parish of Holy Trinity in Fowler and is a student at Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit.

"It [the DSA] is a real act of participating in his providence when you give money that directly goes to funding our seminarian formation."

Randy asks that you pray that he be docile to the Lord and give generously for, as Randy recommends, the Lord is never outdone in generosity.
