Meet Our Vocation Team

Brother David Henley a native of Columbus, Ohio, assumed the position of vocation director on June 1, 2010 and is living in Cincinnati. He has been a Glenmary missioner for over seven years. "Glenmary has been such a good fit for me," says Brother David, "I can't imagine doing anything else." He hopes, as vocation director, to share the joy he has found in religious life with others. "It's exciting to be able to invite men to join what I feel is a great community with a tremndous mission and ministry!"

Patrick McEntee, originally from Covington, Ky., received his pastoral ministry degree from the University of Dayton. He has spent the past 10 years serving young people at the junior high, high school and college levels as a retreat leader, campus minister and/or religion teacher. "I am a vehicle or a helper on the journey to help an individual make an informed decision as to a particular vocation," Pat says. "Part of my vocation is to help discerners find their vocation."
