Father Hage grew up in Brockport, NY and was a serious hockey player in high school. His high school hockey tea
m won the New York State title his junior year. He attended Xavier University in Cincinnati, OH and earned his bachelor’s in philosophy. Upon graduation from Xavier, he entered St. Mary’s Seminary & University in Baltimore, MD and earned his Master’s of Divinity as well as his Sacred Bachelor’s in Theology. He spent the first three years of his priesthood at the largest parish in the diocese of Syracuse, and worked intensely with the youth and young adult ministry programs there.
Following that assignment, the bishop appointed Father Hage pastor of St. Mary’s Church in Hamilton, Saint Joan of Arc Mission in Morrisville, as well as sacramental responsibilities to the Colgate Newman Catholic Community. He is also a member of the Syracuse Vocation Promotion Team and was asked by the bishop of Syracuse to lead programming for all college-age men discerning a vocation throughout the diocese. He called this ministry the “Fisherman’s Club” and has been working with college-age discerners for the past three years. Father Hage also specializes in retreat work, and has offered retreats to numerous groups.
He currently serves on the Priest Personnel Committee, the Continuing Education for Priests Committee, the Diocesan Strategic Planning Committee, and the Vocation Promotion Team. He loves to spend time with his parents, his three siblings, and his nephews.
