WATCH: When your son becomes your… “Father”?!

Updated: Dec 21, 2024


By Neil McDonough and André Escaleira, Jr.


Watching your kids grow up is never easy… but what happens when your son becomes your… “Father”?!


We sat down with Rick and Mary Machado to talk about what it’s like to be the parents of a newly ordained priest, and to reflect on the gift of fatherhood – especially the spiritual fatherhood of our priests!


As we celebrate Father’s Day on Sunday, we’re grateful for the fatherhood of the fathers in our communities: biological, adoptive, foster, spiritual and bereaved.
