Coordinating the Esselen Peer Ministry Program and The Program for Undergraduate Women
Personal Statement
It is so good to be back at the Newman Center UMass! In 2010-11 my contribution to the team will be to coordinate the Esselen Peer Ministry Program and establish a program for undergraduate women. It will be especially wonderful to work with the students who are active in these two programs. Together we will foster faith and articulate ways that the Roman Catholic way can be truly lived in the University setting.
My professional credentials include degrees from Weston Jesuit School of Theology: Master of Theology with Master of Divinity equivalent, and the Master of Theological Studies. And from The College of Our Lady of the Elms, the Master of Arts in Applied Theology. I have been a University Chaplain for five years here at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, chairing the University committee of religious advisors for three of those years.
Since coming into full communion in the Roman Catholic Church through RCIA at the Newman Center UMass in 1994 and receiving the first Master degree in theology in 1995, I have become increasingly involved in education and ministry in the Springfield, MA Diocese.
I will be pleased to bring to this assignment my experience and current working relationships as Chair of the Faith Formation Committee on Bishop Timothy McDonnell's Pastoral Council, Catholic Religious Advisor of Amherst College, Adjunct Member of the Faculty for Undergraduate and Graduate Courses in Religious Studies at The College of Our Lady of the Elms, and Member of the Faculty for the Program for Formation of Permanent Deacons in the Diocese.
Blessings, Chris
