Our parish has a young man beginning his studies at St Charles Borromeo Seminary, Jake Snyder. Jake attends mass at St. John Neumann most weekends and assists Father Dunn. Council #7755 is proud to support Jake in his journey to priesthood. We want to share his biography with all our brothers. Please keep Jake in your prayers and if your paths cross tell him of your support.
"I grew up in Mount Laurel, NJ and attended elementary school at Our Lady of Good Counsel
School in Moorestown, NJ along with my twin sister. I have felt the call to the priesthood from a
young age and that only continued to flourish with my Catholic education and altar serving. After
graduating OLGC, I attended Paul VI for High School and worked at Johnson’s Corner Farm in
Medford, NJ. During my high school years I became more involved with altar serving at our
parish and other ministries and have found a home at St. John Neumann. I was recently
accepted as a seminarian for the Diocese of Trenton on December 8th, 2022 (the feast of Our
Lady’s Immaculate Conception), and subsequently accepted by St. Charles Borromeo Seminary
in Wynnewood, PA, where I am currently studying to eventually, God willing, become a priest to
serve our diocese."
