I am Joe. I am from Kitchener Ontario,Canada. I am very pro-conservative, pro-life, pro-family, and pro-Catholic, because that is who I am. My Family is also very important. I am a loving son, grandson,friend,cousin,nephew, and husband. I am a member of St Aloysius Parish in Kitchener. I am also a member of the Knights of Columbus in Waterloo Ontario. I love the liturgy. I have an appreciation for the Ordinary Form and Extraordinary Form of the Mass. I love the bells and smells of incense. Latin is a beautiful language. I dont speak it but slowly learning the mother tongue of the church.

In my free time, I love catching a good movie or tv shows, going for walks, reading, spending time in prayer, being involved in my faith community, listening to music, technology, sports, and much more. I love spreading the Gospel through word and action. I also do my best to love God and others as we are called to do in the first book of John. I have a passion for working with people especially individuals who have disabilities and those who are homeless.
