This website describes the Catholic resources that I have created and the presentations I offer.
I am a husband, dad and teacher who loves teaching and catechesis. I have been blessed to serve the Ontario Catholic community in several capacities for over 40 years. Recently my books about religious education, catechesis and spirituality have brought me in touch with an audience beyond classrooms through presentations and retreats for Catholic parishes, teachers, administrators, and parents.
