Fr. Christopher Daniel was born and raised in Seabrook, Texas just south of Houston.  His parents and his home parish of St. Paul’s encouraged him from an early age to grow in his faith. After earning a bachelor of arts in Theology and Philosophy from the Franciscan University of Steubenville in 2013 and a masters of theological studies from Boston College in 2016, he spent a year in the Solomon Islands teaching in the seminary on Guadalcanal for Dominican Archbishop Chris Cardone, O.P.  “When I first met the friars I just had this sense of being at home; that God was calling me to this family and that together through holy preaching we could make Him known and bring his joy to the world.”
