Fr. Paul Gallagher, OFM. His journey as a Franciscan began over 40 years ago when he went to the seminary to “give it a try.” Through those years he has grown to appreciate how God was present to him in the good and difficult times. He continues to grow in appreciation for his vocation as a friar, priest, spiritual director and friend. He feels honored to be part of other people’s journey with God. He feels called to look at his own life, others, and the world around him from God’s desire and perspective. Fr. Paul still loves jogging, pizza and ice cream, not always in that order!
