Upon his appointment as St. Theresa's pastor a year or so ago, he has again embraced the Knights via our local council, as well as being a stable presence in our parish family. He has worked through the ins and outs of a very complicated building process and navigated the construction of our new youth building, which has been named C.I.T.Y. (stands for Christ in the Youth). We are proud to have him as our pastor, as well as a Brother Knight. Congratulations Fr. Joe!
