  Chaplain, Director Faith and Life

  Students feel the pressure at University, arguably more now then ever before. I have the joy of walking alongside students as they ask questions about who they are, why there here at Brock, and why they distinctly matter. Each day brings a new challenge, a new joy, and a new reason to be thankful for such an incredible opportunity to serve the church, God's children, and the Brock University community.
