Father Joseph Gill Biography:

Currently the chaplain at Trinity Catholic High School in Stamford, Connecticut, Father Joseph Gill is a man with a mission. A pilgrimage to Rome at the age of 14 transformed his life. “I remember standing in the Coliseum, realizing that over 10,000 people shed their blood for Jesus on that very spot… What can I do with my life to glorify God?” he asked himself. A graduate of Franciscan University of Steubenville and Mount St. Mary’s University, Father Gill was ordained a priest in 2013 for the Diocese of Bridgeport. A singer and musician (keyboard and guitar), he has produced several albums of Christian rock. He is also a blogger who has inspired many followers on the internet, and is author of Days of Grace, a spiritual novel of suspense. In all of his activities, Father Gill wishes to share his profound and personal encounter with Jesus Christ. “I want to give my life to him and to make him known and loved, so that he may set souls ablaze with a passion for holiness.”
