Details
Eric Mahl grew up in the small town of Monroeville, Ohio where he was a standout athlete. He earned a scholarship to play division one football at Kent State University and, in 2005, was signed by the Cleveland Browns. After leaving the NFL, he spent three years working in the world, where he continued his intensive focus on discerning his vocation. After this period of discernment, he sold or gave away all his belongings so as to fully give himself to the Lord and live out the message of Divine Mercy.
His journey eventually lead him to the shrine of Divine Mercy in Stockbridge, Massachusetts and Fr. Michael Gaitley. Eric now lives, works, and prays in service with Marian Missionaries of Divine Mercy.

This is a life changing talk! As a former pro athlete and successful Catholic business man, I truly have changed my focus on doing rather than just knowing!
