Deacon Mike believes that we have been greatly blessed to be a part of the best parish in San Diego (if not the whole world)! His life, family, and faith have grown in ways that he cannot put into words since participating in community here. Deacon Mike loves spending time with his family-- his four smart and sassy children, six adorable grandchildren, and amazing wife! Because a day with family is perfection, he has developed a passion to support kids through education. He has devoted much of his time at three inner city schools, and is always impressed and inspired by children who use education and dedication to break the cycle of poverty. In addition to the abundant blessings he witnesses in San Diego, he is grateful for the transformative effects of his trips to Lourdes, France- especially feeling the presence of God at the sanctuary there.
