Saint John Neumann (1811 - 1860) wanted to be a priest and believe it or not when it was time for ordination since there were an excess of priests the bishop in Bohemia told him that he could not get ordinated. He tried different parishes around the world and finally got accepted in New York and became the 36th priest for 200,000 Catholics. He later went on to become a bishop and also became the founder of Catholic education system in the United States.

St. John Neumann please help us find our call in life like you did and help our schools around the world instill Godly values to the children.
