One Deacon's Journey

I am an ordained Deacon in the New England Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church, with certification in the area of spiritual formation. I offer leadership and direction to deacons, diaconal ministers and deaconesses in the Conference as well many inquiring and provisional candidates for ordained ministry.

I lead spiritual retreats around New England and preach, from time to time, in the local church. I offer day long and weekend long retreats on prayer, Sabbath and other spiritual disciplines.

I am a member of The Order of Saint Luke (OSL). I enjoy using the Daily Office from a variety of resources and occasionally write liturgy for the local church.  I regularly design worship visuals for special settings in the local church as well as for my ministry of visitation and retreats.

I enjoy playing  Native American flutes, Native Spirituality, and spending as much time as possible out of doors. I am committed to living simply, conscious of our culture’s impact on all of Creation.

Other interests include living lake side in Maine where I take lots of pictures, genealogical research and many different fiber arts.
