HI Karen,
I've certainly experienced myself, that different priests, can have vastly different attitudes on various subjects. And that some are more helpful than others.

Your husband is not going to be "enthusiastic" about what they have to say to him either way. I think it would be highly beneficial to you, for him to hear it anyway \:\) Depending on how good a speaker that priest is. Otherwise... nothing wrong with going to a priest outside your immediate parish, if you have a need for it.

Does your husband still attend church, on a semi-regular basis?

And has your husband ever mentioned a preference that HE has, for either priest, or possibly others?
