Ordained in 1970, he is a Catholic priest of the Archdiocese of Baltimore and involved full-time in contemplative ministry. A graduate of the Shalem Institute in Washington, he has served as adjunct faculty at the Institute and also as a member of the Spiritual Formation Department at St. Luke Institute in Silver Spring, Maryland. He is an Associate of Mepkin Abbey in South Carolina where he leads contemplative retreats and was the co-founder of the Mepkin Priest Wellness Program, a program for priest wellness. After more than 20 years serving as a pastor in Maryland, he spends much of his time ministering to people of all religious faiths who have a longing for God and a desire to live out of that presence. He resides in rural Southeastern Pennsylvania, amid the Amish and Mennonites, where he spends time in silence and reflection. He has studied in Rome and Jerusalem. His ministry includes leading retreats, parish missions, and days of recollection. He has Masters degrees in Counseling and in Theology, and a Doctorate in Educational Administration.vizualizați mai puține
