Sunday, October 22, 6:30-8pm, at St. Stephen's Church, 24 Clark St, Boston, MA 02109 - Come for an early-evening meeting of story-telling with multimedia and Q&A (and maybe even some singing), where I'll share the history of my mission to Ecuador, what's happening now, and how you can get involved.

I made a few simple videos to help visualize the B2B mission and also how support is effected. You can view them here, and you'll also find them posted up on the Mission and Giving pages.

This Friday evening, there is an Ecuadorian cultural event in Lawrence, MA, sponsored by the Ecuadorian communities of Massachusetts. If you are interested in going, please contact me.

A few more updates: One is that there is ongoing discussion about forming an exchange at a distance between students...

I arrived in Boston just as the blizzard stopped. Our plane was delayed 3 hours in Panama, so it could miss the storm...

I met with Carlos Caz from Alao last Sunday in Quito, shared lunch and I gave him the sombrero I picked up for him in Peru...

I'll be coming back to Boston a bit early, on February 9. Hopefully, I can arrange a local presentation event open to everyone after I get back, to share what's happened and what's to come!

From the middle to end of January, I spent time with priests from the Society of St. James the Apostle in Perú, where they currently have their center house and the focus of their mission...

Here is the summary of my time in Riobamba - I hope you enjoy it!

Hi, I hope the new year is going well! I am now in Lima, Perú, where the Society of St. James is having their annual meeting...

Just a note to say that I am back from the Alao communities in the canton of Riobamba, and I will have news, photos, and videos to share soon!...

I had a "technical difficulty" with my emails to subscribers - I didn't know they weren't sending until someone mentioned it today...

This week I was a little under the weather (OK, the weather here is 83 every day, but the sun is hot)...

I hope you've had a great Christmas! ... There's a lot to share, so here goes:

I arrived in San Isidro last Wednesday, and have been going non-stop since...

When I'm in Quito, the Franciscan sisters there graciously allow me to stay over and share some in their life and ministry...

I arrived in Ecuador on December 6 and went on the 9th to Chontal, to bring Christmas gifts for the children...

Before leaving, I was able to spend some time in the last few weeks with local friends. It's always a sort of sad-happy time in leaving one place for another!

October was the month of missions in the Catholic Church worldwide, and friends at the Society of St. James the Apostle asked me to share some thoughts on this year's theme...

This week, I'll be re-launching this website - stay tuned!
