Father Alejandro Espejo’s story begins in Mérida, Mexico, where he grew up in a family that wasn’t initially rooted in the Catholic faith.
The Call to Dive Deeper
During Holy Week missions at age 15, on Holy Thursday during adoration, he heard an inner voice: “Go into the deep.”
A Year of Service and Transformation
Working on logistics for World Youth Day 2005 in Cologne, living with priests and seminarians profoundly changed his perception of priesthood.
Embracing the Vocation
”I told God, ‘If You are calling me, I will try.‘” He entered formation with the Legionaries of Christ.
The Joy of Priesthood
Now serving in Frankfurt, Germany, his greatest joy comes from his work as a confessor and spiritual director. “Confession is where God shows His greatest mercy.”
