We are so excited to welcome our new parochial vicar, Fr. Raguiel Rodriguez!
Father Raguiel Rodriguez León was born in Camaguey, Cuba on April 21, 1977. He felt the strong call to become a Catholic Priest at 19 years old, and he entered into the Seminary St. Carlos and St. Ambrosio in La Habana, Cuba. During the following 10 years he continued his priestly formation in Mexico, Colombia, and Dominican Republic where he was ordained a Deacon on October 2007. Later on he was ordained a priest on December 27, 2008 on the day of the celebration of the feast of St. John the Evangelist and Apostle, in Humacao, Puerto Rico. He has exercised his priesthood in different parishes in Puerto Rico and in Florida.
He also studied English at UNF in Jacksonville, Florida. Please say hi to Fr. Raguiel after you see him at Mass!
