About Me

I have an M.A. in Theology and an M.Div (Master of Divinity) from St. Bernard's School of Theology and Ministry. I am certified as an officiant by the Federation of Christian Ministries for baptisms, weddings and funerals and minister independently of the Rochester Diocese. I attempt to balance Catholic tradition with an open mind toward the future. In this regard, I work toward a church that is more inclusive, in terms of both its ordination policies and general practices. In addition to this blog, I have a YouTube site at www.youtube.com/priestray and I have a Facebook page.
