Father Philip Erickson was born in 1968 to Mr. Elmer (Rip) and Mrs. Marie
Erickson in Louisville, KY. He spent his youth attending the Most Blessed
Sacrament Church where he was a grade school graduate of the parish school in
1982. Father Philip went on to attend DeSales High School where he graduated in
1986. After graduating from high school, he entered Spaulding University where
he was a student until his graduation as Summa Cum Laude in 1990. He received
an undergraduate degree in mathematics with a minor in education. After 16
years of schooling, Father Philip made a decision to enroll at Saint Meinrad
Seminary and was subsequently ordained to the priesthood on May 27, 1995.
Upon his ordination, he served as the Parochial Vicar at St. Raphael between the years of 1995-1998. In 1998 he then enrolled at St. Paul University and graduated in 2000 as a Canon Lawyer. Upon graduation he assumed the role as the Adjutant Judicial Vicar for the Metropolitan Tribunal where he presently continues to serve in that capacity .He then went on to serve as the Sacramental Moderator at St. John the Apostle Church between the years of 2000 – 2004.
On June 26, 2004 Father Philip became the Pastor of St. Thomas More.
Our Lady of Mount Carmel experienced a great number of changes in 2006. The retirement of our Pastor, Rev. Joseph Maisonneuve, O. Carm, coincided with the 2005 plan by the Archdiocese of Louisville to cluster Our Lady of Mount Carmel with St. Thomas More. As a result, the O.L.M.C. faith community welcomed Father Philip as our pastor in 2006.
