Wednesday, June 24th, 2015

1. How many years at OLMC?

I was with Mount Carmel for 16 years – from 1990 to 2006.

2. Favorite movie?

My favorite movie is The Tree of Life.

3. A moving/exciting OLMC memory?

My most moving memory is the Prayer Service on the Friday night after 9/11 when all the town gathered at Mount Carmel and people at the prayer petition called out names of friends and relatives who were still missing and everyone held hands for the Our Father. It was a tremendous sense of unity of prayer and emotion.

4. Last book you finished?

Gilead by Marilynne Robinson – A story about an old minister writing his life story for his young son and in the process he realized that, in remembering his story, he was praying.

5. A place you always wanted to travel to?

Fortunately, I have traveled to many places throughout the world. My place to visit is yet relatively small, but I would like to visit a rain forest.

6. Life advice? Favorite quote?

God speaks to us through nature, through other people, through the events of our lives and it is always the little things that are most important.
