The AMAZING, Inspiring Life of Father Bill Atkinson, the first quadriplegic priest

I am amazed that I have not heard this story before! Last Friday, June 6, I saw that the latest “Jesuitical” episode was available. The main focus of the episode was an interview they had taped on the campus of Villanova University in March of 2025 — before Pope Francis had passed away and before the Augustinian and graduate of Villanova, Cardinal Robert Prevost, was elected and took the name Pope Leo XIV. In the interview with the prior provincial of the Province of St. Thomas of Villanova, Father Robert Hagan, O.S.A., they discuss the life of Father Bill Atkinson.
