Church Services
I am a parishioner of St. John Neumann Catholic Church, Gaithersburg, MD for over 33 years.
My services during these years have been very diversified. They consisted in organizing retreats, missions, holding Bible studies in Spanish and interpreting into Spanish RCIC English teachings.
Since the inception of the Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration at SJN in 2002, I have been a member of the organizing committee and since 2011 I am one of the three coordinators. I am the leader of the Children’s Adoration Hour which meets every First Friday. I am also in Charge of the Prayfor Priests ministry and the Rosa Mystica Apostolate.
In February 2021 I gave a presentation of the Bishop of the Abandoned Tabernacle at the Catholic Association of the World Bank. In January 2023 I gave the same presentation at St. Martin’s Catholic Church in Gaithersburg, Maryland.

Publications
In 2018, I compiled and translated selected writings of St. Manuel Gonzalez Garcia, a saint from Spain whose writings are only in Spanish . The book is now widely used in Canada, Ireland and England, especially in promoting Eucharistic adoration. This is the only book in English of some of the saint’s writings.
