A Love Affair

We’ve all had experiences of love in many different ways. At the heart of our journey in prayer is the desire to fall in love with Jesus.

I invite you to watch this week’s video, where I discuss how prayer is a love affair with Jesus. As always, please send me your feedback, either on our website, or on social media.

We want to hear from you.

Please share your comments or questions for the bishop.

Encountering Christ In The Diocese Of Bridgeport

The first Sundays of my life were spent in the pews of Saint Joseph’s Church in Brookfield. It was here that I first saw Jesus, in the coloring pages of our children’s booklets. And as I started CCD, I heard His name in Christian songs. And as I was anointed with oil on my confirmation, I felt my heart yearning to learn even more about Him. So, I chose to leave the public school system and pursue Jesus in my education at Immaculate High School. It was here that I understood His life while reading the scriptures in our rigorous religion classes.
