Arnold Clavio admitted that he once dreamed of being a Catholic priest.
In an interview, Arnold said that he had been preparing to become a Catholic priest since high school.
According to him, he was already familiarizing himself with the seminary life in his youth.
“High School palang ako, tini-train na ako sa buhay seminaryo, so during that time ‘yun nga ano ako, praying the rosary, attending mass everyday, ‘yun ang naging buhay ko noong high school, hanggang sa maging active ako na sakristan,” said Arnold.
Unfortunately for Arnold, he was rejected from entering the seminary.
“Pero after nung highschool na ako, noong nag-apply na ako maging seminarista, na-reject ako,” he stated.
Arnold shared that the reason why he was rejected from seminary was because he failed the entrance exam.
His rejection from the seminary pushed Arnold to pursue journalism, his current profession.
Arnold’s faith was many times, including his alleged relationship with the 17-year-old Sara Balabagan, with whom he reportedly had a child.
However, despite the challenges, Arnold remained committed to sharing the gospel on his social media pages and even reminded his followers many times to become good people.
