CONFERENCE SPEAKERS:

Father Will Combs, B.B.D., a native of New Jersey, was the first priest ordained in the Brothers of the Beloved Disciple in San Antonio, Texas. Fr. Combs spent two years in Ecuador, where he became fluent in Spanish which has been a great help in the largely Hispanic parish of St. Mary Magdalen in San Antonio, where he is Parochial Vicar. At the age of 19, Fr. Combs gave his life to Jesus and accepted him as Lord and Savior. He loves music, plays the guitar, and has written numerous songs. He has a special affinity to young people and has ministered to them on a number of occasions. We encourage you to bring your youth and let them be inspired by this spirit-filled priest.
