Welcome

Thank you for visiting my website. I hope you find the homilies of some interest, and will be happy to recommend them to your family and friends.

From a very young age I wanted to be a priest. When I was a young boy in Delhi serving Mass I met a Capuchin priest I admired and so I made up my mind it was to be a Capuchin.

Should you want to support my work for the starving in the world, I would be grateful for any donations, no matter how small. Please send these by cheque to:
