This is a place to find out about what is happening at my church, and discussion religion and spirituality in general. I am the proud husband of Christilynn and dad of Kayleigh and Bennett, and also serve as a pastor in the United Church of Christ. I began an exciting call as the Pastor at the Halifax Congregational Church, UCC, in Halifax, MA, in 2018 after having served UCC churches in East Long
meadow, MA (2016-2018, as senior pastor,) Spencer, MA (2008-2016, as pastor,) Norway, Maine (2006-2008, as Pastor,) and Atkinson, NH (2004-2006, as Associate Pastor of Christian Education, Youth and Family Ministry). I also served as a summer interim pastor in Jamaica, VT in 2003. I also began a new ministry as a Hospice Chaplain with New England Hospice, based in Hingham, MA, in the Dartmouth/New Bedford area. Check out www.newenglandhospice.com for more information about this amazing, family owned and operated, agency. Before beginning my ministry, I worked for 6 years at Foxwoods Resort Casino as a stagehand in the entertainment department, specializing in stage lighting and administration (1996-2002.) I have also worked for my family’s flooring business at various times over the years, typically during school breaks growing up, and later, between my ministries in Vermont and New Hampshire. I hold a BA in Theater Studies from the University of Connecticut (1997,) a Master of Divinity degree from Andover Newton Theological School (2003,) and a Doctor of Ministry degree, also from Andover Newton (2015.) I grew up in Waterbury, CT and have lived all over New England during the course of my carriers and education. My interests include travel, the beach, anything Disney, NASA, camping, board & card games, Boston, watching the Patriots, trivia, Star Wars & Star Trek, theater & music, craft beer, coffee, and playing with my kids. I am also a 20 year Freemason and enjoy helping out in the community however I can.
