In the photos, he reads in the HN Chapel to HNCS first and second graders the book, “Father Ben gets ready for Mass” by Katie Warner, in which he taught about the different parts of the Holy Mass. After reading to them, Will answered questions from students. When one first grader asked why he chose to study to be a Catholic priest, Will answered, “I want to bring Jesus to the people and the people to Jesus.”
