Random thoughts of an organized nature (somewhat… OK who am i kidding)

About

Native of West Virginia.... Wild and Wonderful. A priest of the Diocese of Wheeling - Charleston, ordained June 3, 2006. Forty-two and holding!

I didn’t realize that it had been soooo long since I had posted anything here. Well, I hope I can remedy that. I began my new assignment yesterday. I am now the administrator of Good Shepherd Catholic Church in Glenville, WV.  This is a big step from being an associate pastor. I’m in charge… How scary is that? The Bishop has faith in me, my parents have faith in me, my sisters and friends do as well. Well I have faith too, and I think this is going to be absolutely something wonderful in my life.

Glenville is a small town, but I LOVE IT. In addition to being the administrator at the parish, I have also been named the chaplain to Glenville State College… GO PIONEERS!!!!, and also the chaplain to the Federal Corrections Institute in Gilmer.  So, as you can see, I will not be without activities to keep me busy. I’m looking forward to all the wonderful challenges that lay ahead of me knowing that with God everything is possible and he will always lead me to where he needs me :) More soon, very soon, I PROMISE
