Certified Spiritual Director, Fairfield University's Center for iGnatian Studies

 Since co-founding a YoungLife area in 1997 as a college student at UConn, Vince has been committed to seeing more people, more like Jesus in the Storrs area. Working as a high school ministry leader, a local pastor, a hospital chaplain, and a spiritual director, Vince has learned the value of drawing on diverse Christian traditions for a richer, fuller experience of God. 


Vince and Emily share two energetic little girls, so when Vince is not at St. Timothy's he can often be found at the playground racing them down the slides.

Emily came to UConn in 2005 to pursue a Ph.D. in American Literature. Though she had originally planned on a career as a university professor, she discovered her love of teaching could also be utilized outside the traditional classroom as she became involved in various local ministries, including UConn's Graduate Christian Fellowship


Outside of St. Timothy's, Emily teaches in the English department at UConn and is always on the lookout for a great coffee shop where she can sip tea and grade papers.
