Ordained a priest of the Diocese of Burlington, May 30, 2009. 

Occupation: a beggar who tells other beggars where to find bread. 

My story: a cradle-Catholic, adopted by Mary and the Church at baptism, got to know Christ (gradually) through the power of the Sacraments and the prayer life of a family, heard the call to holiness, gave seminary “a shot,” got called to orders by the bishop, became a priest.
