Special people in this world receive Gods calling and though many are selected few are chosen to serve as parish priests . 

All over the world the calling goes out among men from the colleges , in country towns , on farms and in the city streets.

The desire to be a priest and to serve others is a sacrifice that demands a lot of love without counting the cost .

A life lost , a life found , a life's blessing in many ways is the  life of the parish priest joyously carrying his cross .
