“The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet.”
~Frederick Buechner

I enjoy
Since moving to Louisiana, my wife and I have taken up and love kayaking. There are several great places to kayak right here in Slidell and all along the Northshore. I can be on the bayou in 15-20 minutes. For me, there is not a better place for feeling close to God than being on a kayak surrounded by all the natural beauty and wildlife, and having our dogs with us is a bonus!

I live for
My family means everything to me. My wife of 26 years, Gina, is now an Episcopal Priest, serving as a school chaplain in New Orleans at St. Paul’s Episcopal School. We have two beautiful children, Ash and Olive.

"If it's not about love, it's not about God."
- Presiding Bishop Michael Curry
Our mission is to restore all people to unity with God and each other in Christ, through our worship, teaching, and service to those inside our walls and in our community.
As our Presiding Bishop Michael Curry said: "Love God. Love your neighbors. And while you’re at it, love yourself."
