Roma during the mass celebrated by pope Francis on Good Shepherd Sunday to ordain nine men to the priesthood for the Diocese of Rome in Saint Peter's basilica, Vatican on April 25, 2021.

Piermarini said he decided not to accept the proposal because he felt called to the priesthood. Photo: Eric Vandeville/ABACAPRESS.COM
