Fr. Paul Sullivan

Fr. Sullivan has been ordained for 15 years and also serves as the
Rector of the Nazareth Seminary and Pastor of St. Gregory Parish in
Phoenix.

Fr. Paul grew up in New York in a faithful family where he first came
to know the Lord. After Catholic elementary school and public high
school, he studied business at the State University of New York at
Albany. While working as a CPA in New York and Phoenix, he encountered
further conversion to Jesus and this to discernment of a priestly
vocation. He entered formation at Saint Meinrad Seminary in 2002 to
further consider the Lord’s will for him which became more and more
clear.

After these years of formation and earning degrees in
philosophy and theology, he was ordained in 2007 by Bishop Thomas
Olmsted. He simply loves being a parish priest. He is a member of a
Jesus Caritas priestly fraternity, loves hiking and basketball.
