Fr. Andrew Gronotte, LC

Born and raised in northern Kentucky. Entered the Legion of Christ at 13-years-old, at the Apostolic School in New Hampshire. He was attracted to the Legion because of the youthfulness of the priests and energy in which they lived out their priestly vocation. He finished high school at 16 and was sent to Monterrey, Mexico to do his novitiate. Afterwards he studied liberal arts in Cheshire, CT. Spent 7 years in Rome, mostly at the General Directorate where he studied philosophy and theology while also helping in some of the practical duties around the house. He did his pastoral years in Washington, D.C. from 2008-2011. He was ordained in Rome in December 2016 by the Cardinal Secretary of State. He currently is working as a formator of youth in the D.C. area through the LTP and Conquest programs. He is a fan of UK basketball and OSU football.
