El Hogar, Tegucigalpa, Honduras

Words! 1 Minute

I was privileged from the 23rd to 30th of October to be part of a group from churches in New York and Cincinnati who traveled to Honduras to volunteer for a week at El Hogar.  El Hogar is home, in three locations, to some 250 boys and girls who otherwise would be homeless or living with family in deep poverty.  El Hogar provides food, shelter, education, community, hope, and most of all great love.  It was a wonderful week.

A native of the North Shore of Boston, I currently live in Worcester County, Massachusetts. I worked at Boston College as the Acting Director of The Church in the 21st Century Center until August, 2010 and served until November 2016 as Canon for Formation, and Dean of the George Mercer Jr. School of Theology of the Diocese of Long Island. I was happy to serve as Rector at the Church of Saint Anselm of Canterbury in Shoreham, New York from late 2016 to early 2020. I began service as Rector of The Church of Saint Matthew in the city of Worcester on the first day of the fateful month of 2020.
