I am from Galway on the West Coast of Ireland. I was raised in the village of Newbridge and have 9 brothers, 3 sisters, 31 nieces and nephews and 8 great nieces and nephews!! Wow!!

I came to the diocese of Biloxi in 1986 after studying at St. Patrick’s College in Carlow, Ireland. I was ordained by Bishop Howze at St. Patrick’s Church on July 27, 1986. I celebrated my first Mass on July 28, 1986 and the party afterwards lasted for several days!!!

I usually return to Newbridge at least once a year to visit family and close friends.

I was appointed as Pastor of St. Thomas Aquinas Church in October 2000. I have also served in Gulfport, Columbia, and Tylertown, Mississippi. In my spare time, I like to play racquetball, pray, go jet skiing, and bycycle riding. I also am a big Southern Miss fan and try to attend as many sports events as possible. SMTTT!!!

I was born in Ghana, West Africa, and come from a small family there. I received my education in Ghana, graduating from Seminary and ordained a priest in October 2002. I came to Saint Thomas July 1, 2011.

What I love about Saint Thomas is the love and affection that is felt here and the warm heart of the people.

To anyone searching for God I would tell them that God is real and by keeping an open heart He will reveal Himself.

In my spare time I enjoy swimming, soccer and listening to music. Occasionally I play the drums with the CSA band for the Wednesday and Sunday evening Mass.
