I am 50 years old. I joined the Carnegie Mellon faculty in Computer Science in 1979. Today I work for a web-mediated education spin off, Carnegie Technology Education. I have been a Christian all my life, except for the obligatory college years agnosticism. Thanks go to my wife, Margie Marquez, for jolting me out of that. Thanks go to God for accepting me back. I feel that I am just waking up to my faith, which I suspect is pretty much accurate. I have found great satisfaction in service to Patzún and joy in fellowship with Las Hermanas and the children. As you might imagine having my son accompany me this year was a real treat.

My family and I left St. Ann in Waynesburgh Pennsylvania, moving about 70 miles north. We now are members of St. Richard Parish. Father Ken Oldenski and I expect to start a mission there in the near future. I 'll keep you posted.
