| Introduction | “Have Alb, Will Travel!” I am a Conventual Franciscan priest living at Mount Saint Francis, IN. Since my ordination in 1975 I've served in four parishes, two retreat houses, two hospitals, and two countries in Ohio, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Louisiana and Kentucky, and briefly in Melbourne Australia. Since retiring from chaplaincy in the VA, I am available for weekend supply in parishes, confessions, and spiritual direction here at the Mount. I also volunteer in the Province Mission Advancement Office. (I cosign letters with Father John Elmer, and telephone donors to say and thanks and ask if there is anything we should pray for.) Call and leave a message at 502-445-2955 I enjoy photography, working out, reading, writing, conversation, and shooting pool. I am always eager to play if you live nearby! I am happy to be a Franciscan, living with four other friars here. We are engaged in retreat, parish and hospital ministries, but our primary ministries are daily prayer and community. We strive to live in the peacefulness of our God. |
