The Dangling Urinal: An Unconventional Catholic Priesthood

By John J. Mericantante III

The childhood ideal is not often the reality and thus begins that human struggle to accept the truth of the reality without losing the intrinsic value which first attracted one to the ideal! This is the quest of Father John to keep the beauty of the Catholic Priesthood which attracted him as a six year old child without denying the reality of a Catholic Priesthood as he fights not only to survive as a priest but to flourish as a priest in the modern world! This personal dilemma leads Father John into living the life in an unconventional Priesthood! Having studied in Rome and having been ordained as a Diocesan priest for the Archdiocese of Boston, Father John is compelled by his ideals to leave the security of his homeland. Father John's life leads him to experience both God and Man as a unique and unforgettable love story which can be understood only by those who themselves would not and could not love less!
