Speaker: Deacon Steven Caraher (after June 1 Father Steven Caraher), a 28-year-old native of Munster, Indiana, pursued studies in mathematics and computer science at Indiana University before discerning his calling to the priesthood. After six years of preparation at Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit, he is set to be ordained to the priesthood on June 1 of 2024. Throughout his journey, Steven has been deeply involved in various ministries, including altar serving, choir singing, and Eagle Scout projects within his home parish of St. Thomas More in Munster. Steven’s summer assignments have taken him across different ministries, from youth and homebound care to social media outreach and homeless ministry. Inspired by Jesus’s words in Matthew 14:27, he finds courage and purpose in accompanying others through life’s challenges.
Presentation begins at 6:30 PM
