Paul's Story
Hello! I just retired from a 36 year career as a United Methodist pastor of various rural churches in Virginia. At present I serve as the senior chaplain of the Greensville Correctional Center at Jarratt, Virginia. I am married to Dorcas, and I have one daughter, Mary. Some of the exciting things I have done recently is to be able to teach one seminary course and about twelve college courses, a dream that I had from high school on to be a professor. I am very interested in all forms of history, in music, and in Christian spiritual formation.

e prison where I serve. No one would ever guess that I would become a prison chaplain. My faith is very central to my life, and I see my history as a pilgrimage with Jesus Christ, full of many adventures. I consider myself a spritual person, a good listener, an academic, an encourager, an one who tries to extend the mercy of God to all I meet. It has been an adventurous 60 years, and it is an ongoing story, to the glory of God. I was quite blessed by special teachers at Ft. Hunt, Mr. Hensley, Mr. Cohen, Mrs. Kent, Mr Christy, Mr. Connally, etc. and by special professors, Dr. Ed Jones, Dr. Wayne Cole, Dr. Tim Clinton, and many others. I remember the wonderful times we had in HS band, the various honor societies, It's Academic, and other organizations. My prayer is that the blessing of God come to all who read this story.
