He was ordained in 1956, [cite web |author=Stanford University Press |year=n.d. |title="The Guadalupan Controversies in Mexico"– Author Info |url=http://www.sup.org/book.cgi?book_id=5252 |work=Stanford University Press Books|accessdate=2007-11-13] and afterwards taught in seminaries in the Midwest and California.
