Fr. Elijah Delello, FHS was born and raised in New Jersey. He grew up Catholic but didn't really have a personal relationship with Jesus.

While in college, he was challenged by a non-denominational Christian as to why he was Catholic. He soon realized that he didn't know, and so he began to read the Bible and study the Faith for himself. This led him to an encounter with Jesus through the scriptures and teachings of the Church. The truths of the Church placed a deep longing for God in his heart. He began to pray more and to cultivate his own relationship with Jesus.

By the end of college, he began to hear a call to the priesthood so he went to Franciscan University to study the faith and discern his vocation. While at Franciscan, he began to feel a call to religious life.
After graduation, he continued to discern God’s call for him while working as a campus minister at Louisiana State University. At the end of his time there he felt the Lord call him to join the Franciscan Friars of the Holy Spirit. He entered with the friars on August 11, 2017 on the feast of St. Clare and has been with them ever since. Fr. Elijah Delello was ordained a Deacon in 2023 and was ordained a priest on June 1, 2024, the feast of Corpus Christi.
