Bill Shaules is our first non-ordained pastoral associate. Married with
two children, Bill has a Masters Degree in Religious Studies and a Ph.D.
in New Testament Scriptures. He taught for seven years at St. Francis High School and has experience
in parish youth ministry and in liturgy preparation. Bill performs many of the duties
(with the exception of sacraments) that you have traditionally only
seen performed by the parish priest. He will focus his energies especially
in youth and young adult ministries.
