Jonathan Torres is the oldest of nine children and is originally from Long Island, New York.  He and his family moved to Charlotte, North Carolina in 2004.
    
Graduating from Belmont Abbey College in 2012 with a degree in English Literature, he began working for the Charlotte-based Catholic publishing company Saint Benedict Press as an editor and video production manager.  In 2014 he entered seminary for the diocese of Charlotte and has thus finished his fifth year of formation.
    
In his spare time, Jonathan enjoys playing tennis, writing fiction, and reading classic literature.  Some of his favorite authors are Dante, Tolkien, and Flannery O’Connor.
    
Jonathan is scheduled to be ordained as a transitional deacon on June 8 of this year.  His ordination to the priesthood will be next June.

Please welcome Deacon Jonathan Torres to the Parish of St. Therese this summer!

“We Are His Hands,” is the theme of the 2019 Diocesan Support Appeal.  The purpose of the Diocesan Support Appeal (DSA) is to help provide the annual funding necessary to carry out the mission of our diocese – namely to fulfill our call to “grow ever more perfectly into a community of praise, worship and witness, and to become a leaven of service and sign of peace through love in the Piedmont and Western North Carolina.” 
 
The DSA provides support for more than 20 services that Catholic Charities offers throughout the diocese.  The appeal also provides funding for Vocations, Education Ministries (providing over 30 different programs), Multicultural Ministries, Eucharistic Congress, and the Housing Ministry.  Some of these ministries provide services beyond the scope of individual parishes and some exist for the sole purpose of assisting parishes in their own missions to teach, evangelize and serve.
 
Please be generous to the Diocesan Support Appeal.  Your contribution to the Diocesan Support Appeal is a way to act with love for our sisters and brothers throughout the diocese and to continue the saving work begun by Jesus.  You may complete a pledge envelope and drop it off at the Parish Office or Welcome Desk, or go to charlottediocese.org/dsa to make a gift online.  Thank you for your generosity! (Please make checks payable to DSA).
