Chaplain

Welcome to our website. This is an opportunity for you to get to know about ECM and St. Brigid’s Community. I’m the Chaplain for the Episcopal Campus Ministry at Arizona State University and the priest for St. Brigid’s Community.

I’m a near native of Arizona and two time alum of ASU. My heart is here in Arizona and my passion is the ministry with young adults. For over twenty-five years I have worked closely with young adults; in college athletics, teaching, administration and ministry.

My prayer is that you will find something within the network of our community to connect with us whether it is Peregrini, Wednesday conversation or St. Brigid’s. Each has a little different offering. All are incredibly hospitable. Please know that you are very welcome to check out our community any time.

You can always contact me through email or by phone at 623-556-7112. As Chaplain I am available to listen and be a support in whatever may come your way on life’s pilgrimage.
  
“Jesus stands at the door and knocks, in complete reality. He asks you for help in the form of a beggar, in the form of a ruined human being in torn clothes. He confronts you in every human being you meet. Christ walks on the earth as your neighbor as long as there are people.” Dietrich Bonhoeffer
