Ordained in 2002 for the Diocese of Lafayette (Louisiana), Fr. Guilbeau entered the Dominican novitiate in 2005 and professed his simple vows in 2006. Before joining the Order, Fr. Guilbeau obtained his Master of Divinity and Master of Arts degrees from St. John's Seminary in Boston, and a Licentiate in Sacred Theology (Patristic Theology) from the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome. In the fall of 2010, having completed three years of parochial ministry at the Church of St. Vincent Ferrer in New York City, Fr. Guilbeau began doctoral studies in fundamental moral theology at the University of Fribourg in Switzerland.

The Cathedral of St. Patrick Young Adults group in New York City is doing its part to renew practice of the Sacrament of Penance. On March 6-7, it is hosting "Twenty Four Hours of Confession" in over 20 Manhattan parishes. Not every parish participating will be open for the entire 24-hour period, but collectively, from 7:00 AM Friday to 7:00 AM Saturday, multiple churches throughout the city will be open with priests available for the sacrament. Our own Church of St. Vincent Ferrer is a proud participant in this initiative. Click here fore more information, including locations and times.
Over the past few days, "Twenty Four Hours of Confession" has garnered a good bit of media attention, including articles in the National Catholic Register and the New York Post.
