  <itunes:subtitle>In this month’s episode, Msgr. Bill Fay discusses family issues with Rev. Eugene “Gene” Schaeffer, a member of the Class of 2022 who is now serving the Archdiocese of St. Louis. Fr. Gene is well-suited for this conversation since he entered the Seminary as a dad to two wonderful daughters and a grandfather to two beautiful grandchildren. Fr. Gene experienced a latent faith practice, a divorce and an annulment, and then had a strong return to the faith and moved forward to be ordained a permanent deacon. But there was still more he desired to do. Listen as he and Msgr. Fay discuss Fr. Gene’s path to priesthood.</itunes:subtitle>
