On Friday, September 2, 2022, Paulist novice James Marquez is slated to make his first promise to the Paulist Fathers during a 5:30 p.m. Mass at St. Joseph’s Seminary in Washington, D.C. (This Mass will be broadcast live at paulist.org/promises).

In advance of that important Mass, our old friend Mike Hayes caught up with James for an installment of #FiveQuestions.

N.B. In his answer to Mike’s fifth question, James replies he would bring with him Kristin Lavransdatter by the author Sigrid Undset. Here is her Wikipedia entry.
