Fr. Carlos Martins, CC

Ordination Anniversary:

May 30, 2009

What was your background before you joined the CC? 

I was born in Kitchener, Ontario. A convert from atheism, I completed studies in philosophy at the University of Waterloo where I obtained my Bachelor of Arts degree.  A Master of Arts degree in philosophy followed from the University of Toronto, and then a Bachelor of Education from the University of Ottawa. Upon completion of my studies a career in teaching was begun. 

What led you to join this community?

Three years into teaching, while on retreat, I heard a call to the priesthood and joined the Companions of the Cross.
