After his year in the Delta Quadrant Jacob, came home and his Bishop sent him off to the Pontifical College Josephinum, in Ohio of the United States. The campus was built in 1881 and was still going strong. It was old world and beautiful. No replicators in the dorm rooms and real meals served out of the kitchen in the Dinning Room. He was studying Philosophy for two years before moving onto Theology. He was now with 133 like minded men, and was truly happy. | |||

While in his first year he joined the track team and the debate team. The Seminary would divide up for inter campus games, The Philosophers vs. The Theologians. He loved all the extra games, that broke up the academic works. The academic and formation schedule was hard, days starting at 4am and not ending till 8pm and then there was still the home work to do. | |||
The summers we filled with great adventures and assignments. Some in local Parish Churches, others on the Moon, Mars, once on a Chapel at the Space Dock Center. It was there that Jacob first gave thought to the Archdiocese of Star Fleet and becoming a Chaplin. Once he got back from the Space dock his first year of Theology was starting. He was now in Major Seminary and he then took his first vows. This was when he took the religious name Philip Neri, after a Saint he likes St. Philip Neri a missionary priest, from Florence Italy, in the year 1515. | |||
With this name change came a new zeal for life and the faith. He increased his studies along with his prayer life. He was more driven now than ever. | |||

Philip got to spend a year in Rome at the Vatican and studying at both the North American Collage and the Biblicum. He was later ordained a Deacon in Rome at the Vatican under Pope Luke IV. This time was a true gift and again feed his faith. But at night he would often be at the old Vatican Observatory star gazing. This desire to the calling of Star Fleet was growing and working on pushing itself out. | |||
