Protect Us, Oh Lord!

Fr. Bob Garon is a native of Los Angeles and a revert to Catholicism. After being away from the Church for 14 years and working as an actor, a bartender, and doing voiceovers, he began a journey back to the faith.  At the age of 35 he witnessed the examples of faith during a family reunion.  His rediscovery of the Catholic faith led him to consider a vocation to the priesthood, and he was ordained in 2005.  Since his reversion back to the Church, Fr. Bob has participated in many methods of prayer. The Mass is his favorite prayer, but silence is the place where Fr. Bob allows himself to hear God.   He currently serves as pastor of St Didacus church in Sylmar, California.
