We encounter God in an intimate relationship through daily prayer, the sacraments and the Scriptures.
God has blessed my wife (Abby), son (Ronan), daughter (Maeve) and I to be serving in the great country of Long Island, NY where we will be a missionary family at Stony Brook University. We look forward to opening up our home and sharing our family life with the students as well as bringing our family to the campus! Come find the kids on campus and most likely you will find us.
My wife and I did not expect to be joining FOCUS after we got married! After teaching at a Catholic High School for a year, we were invited to apply for FOCUS by a good friend. Within a two week period, we had our interviews, were hired, accepted the offer, and planned to move to Long Island in the summer. Although it was a whirlwind, God has confirmed through many clear and beautiful signs that this is exactly where He wants us. We are passionate about sharing the love of Christ with the world and are so blessed to be able to share His love on the college campus. We believe that our mission will change lives! Not because we are so great, but because of the great sacramental graces Christ offers and His desire to bring souls into contact with His Deep Intimacy, Authentic Love, and Joy
When I answered the call to join FOCUS, I made the decision to rely on the spiritual and financial support of mission partners to help me through this mission. I’ve been blessed with the most amazing people who have journeyed with me as I serve on campus. If you are interested in partnering with me, please let me know of the best way to reach you and I will schedule an appointment. I’d be honored to share this mission with you.

By building genuine friendships, we meet students on a deeper level.
We teach students how to share the gospel, who in turn teach other students how to pass it on.
