Twice retired Air Force Colonel of 30 years and federal civil service, and with military assignments to places like Russia, Bulgaria, Thailand, Malaysia, Japan and the Philippines, Deacon Will realized that his “giving back to the church” was to be ordained as Permanent Deacon and to be opportunely assigned to St. Jude on January 13, 2015. In addition to being an avid pilgrimage host, he is the Director of the Prison Ministry for the Diocese of Honolulu. He also holds regular weekly Bible Study sessions at St. Jude, keeping our multi-purpose room fully occupied most Thursday evenings.
