Fr. Gaurav Shroff – Former Hindu

February 8, 2022 No Comments

Fr. Gaurav Shroff was born in India, and spent part of his childhood in the United States before moving back. His grandmother was the most observant Hindu in his family, and he remembers her devout prayers, as well as the various festivals he would celebrate with his extended family. His love of classical music eventually led him to polyphony and Gregorian chant, and captivated by its beauty, he began to study the world that had produced it. That led him to a powerful encounter with Jesus at a Good Friday service, and began in earnest his path to the Catholic Church and the priesthood. He now serves as a priest in the Archdiocese of Atlanta.
