I'm a Roman Catholic Deacon who has been appointed to the parishes of Divine Mercy Catholic Church, Faribault, and to St. Patrick, Shieldsville. Prior to my current diaconate assignment, I was a deacon with St. Wenceslaus in New Prague, Divine Mercy Catholic Church in Faribault, and before that, 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.
