About Me
A Different Way to Spread God's Word
I was ordained a priest in 1979, and while always being parish-based, including 22 years as a pastor, I have always been involved in some way with teaching, from grade school through college. Upon retiring, I decided to continue to spread the Word by writing. I've written two children's books, and one for adults seeking to grow in their Faith. You can also follow me on "Father Al's Fragments" on Facebook.
