Who am I ? 

Born and raised in Kalamazoo MI youngest son of 8 boys of Winnie & Larry, a printer and business person by trade. Married to my Lovely wife Anne and we have 5 grown children.

      I was told to get sober by Anne in 1993 (best suggestion she ever made) and so began the journey of the second half of my life... Always and still going to Church and rediscovering the power of the sacrament of reconciliation.

      Our Priest at the time Fr. Max C. asked me if i would be interested in becoming a Deacon. Wow I was shocked! I thought, who me? A guy who didn't graduate from college and goes to therapy 3 times a week ? What would the Church want with me? I got my answer, and today I can say the same thing... What Jesus and the Church wants from all of us is to WITNESS. 

Witness: Jesus, Mary

So what happens next is just as good. While listening to "christian radio" one day, I hear someone really bad mouthing the Blessed Mother Mary. For all Generations will call you Blessed (Luke chapter 1). This really set me on fire in defense of her honor. And Jesus encouraged it.

And so after 7 years of training and 4 years of discipleship training as well as hundreds of meetings, God has formed me into a more Merciful person. (Wow, OK so I'm still a work in progress.) But that is my aim to be like Jesus at the well, to be Jesus in the gospels; to be St. Paul and St. Thomas, St. Louis, and St. Mary Magdalene, St. Teresa (all of them). Most of all, to be like St. John and Blessed Mother Mary at The Foot of The Cross. 

Today's Mission 

I was ordained in the Catholic Diocese of Kalamazoo on the Feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, September 8, 2012.

The radio show started on Catholic radio and can now be heard primarily on secular radio stations, with the aim of bringing the Liturgy of the Word to those who cant make it to Church, as well as refute lies, and talk openly about problems in our human Family.

I am not conservative or liberal. I am a follower of Jesus Christ who has a way of making everyone uncomfortable. " Praise be Jesus Christ ." Just as Christ,  my aim is to Love

and to feel loved by God. Today I am happy to speak with groups or retreats to anyone who is willing to listen. Doing all things For Jesus thru Mary.
