Favorite Scripture: Psalm 127: 1-2

If Yahweh does not build the house, in vain the masons toil; if Yahweh does not guard the city, in vain the sentries watch.

In vain you get up earlier, and put off going to bed, sweating to make a living, since he provides for his beloved as they sleep.

Psalm 118: 8-9

I would rather take refuge in Yahweh than to rely on men;
I would rather take refuge in Yahweh than rely on princes.

Favorite Hobby:  A long and uphill bike ride.

Father Bernardo, what are your main apostolates within Regnum Christi?

I am a spiritual director for the humanists in our seminary in Cheshire, CT.

Why do you love being a priest?

Because I am a witness of the love and care of God for his children. It is a call for a special way of intimacy with the Lord. The honor of helping others to respond to God.
