CHNetwork Board

September 3, 2014 No Comments

Since the beginning of the CHNetwork twenty years ago, the Board of Directors has been a crucial foundation to our work. They have been friends in the Lord, guiding our mission, especially when facing corporate and financial decisions. With the passing of dear Father Ray Ryland — who had been Vice President and Chaplain from the onset — it was necessary for us to add members to the Board. Consequently, we are happy to introduce to you our new Board members, along with short bios of the present Board. Please pray for them and our work together.

Newly elected Chaplain and Director

Monsignor Frank Lane presently serves as the Spiritual Director at Mount Saint Mary’s of the West in Cincinnati, Ohio.

He has given a number of lectures and is the author of articles published in the Josephinum Journal of Theology and the New Catholic Encyclopedia. He is a past member of the Board of Trustees for the Pontifical College Josephinum and of Catholic Social Services of the Diocese of Columbus.

Dr. Geiger has been a longtime supporter of the CHNetwork and a member of the Board of Directors since 2009.

in his local parish, a writer and speaker on topics related to Catholic apologetics, and a dedicated foot soldier in the New Evangelization called for by St. John Paul II.
