Born in Brooklyn and raised in Englewood Cliffs, I was a parochial vicar and administrator at Our Lady of Mercy Parish in Park Ridge and a parochial vicar at Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary / St. Michael’s in Elizabeth. Presently, I am the Director of Priestly Vocations for the Archdiocese of Newark.
I am in residence at Our Lady of Sorrows because of her proximity to Seton Hall University within which is Immaculate Conception Seminary within which is the Office of Priestly Vocations. However, because I live at Our Lady of Sorrows, I have the great blessing of participating in the life of the parish, e.g. celebrating Masses, hearing Confessions, and attending fun events at the parish like the St. Patrick’s Day party!
