I'm a Roman Catholic Deacon who is assigned ad nutum episcopi to exercise the ministry of a permanent deacon at the Church of St. Dominic in Northfield with the start of Lent 2012. Prior to my current diaconate assignment, I was assigned with Divine Mercy Catholic Church in Faribault, St. Patrick in Shieldsville, St. Wenceslaus in New Prague, and Saint Ambrose of Woodbury.
I have been an active Police Chaplain for years. First with the St. Paul Police Department, followed by the Rice County Sheriff's Department, and then the Faribault Area Chaplains for Emergency Services (FACES).
Other police work includes being a member of the Woodbury Park Patrol. I have also been a Reserve Officer with the St. Paul Police Department and I am currently a member of the Northfield Police Department as the Captain of the Reserves.
I make a living working as a Medical Laboratory Technician at Northfield Hospital.
