It's a piece about a young adult Catholic in Seattle who has answered the call to priesthood. Every once in a while the local mass media actually have a "good news" story about the Catholic church in Seattle. The subject of the article, Chris Canlas, is quoted here:
The sex abuse scandal has "scarred the face of priesthood," Canlas said, and he hopes to show that there are good men in the church. "Most of us are good men who just want to help others," he said.
He is quick to point out, though, that his way of serving is not better than anyone else's. It's just different. "Everyone has their own way to serve."
