JP. 

I was born in Sarnia, Ontario, Canada on June 1, 1977.

Years 0 to 19 were pretty status quo. I grew, played sports, discovered girls, got in a fair share of trouble and drove my folks crazy.

Somehow, I managed to get accepted to Queen's University in 1996. Four years later, I left Queen's with a Bachelor (Honours) of Commerce degree.

Shortly after graduation, I spent 2 months cycling solo across Canada.

Upon returning from my bike trip, I worked as VP Sales/Marketing for Alocet, Inc.

After 4 years with Alocet (2000-2004), I left the company to discern my call to the priesthood.

During this discernment period, I founded Mir Movement, taught high school and worked as a small business consultant.

In 2006, I decided to walk across Canada to promote peace, Mir Movement and Medjugorje. This initiative was called "10 Million Steps for Peace" (10 MSP).  

On April 1, 2007, I set out walking from Vancouver, BC. Six weeks later, the walk was discontinued due to lack of funding.

Two months following the discontinuation of 10 MSP, I moved to Busan, South Korea to teach English. During this time, I also reorganised Mir Movement (see Hey, what happened to the "old" Mir Movement).

Today I am on the road sharing the story of Medjugorje (see Walking and talking).
