Proud to be Catholic...
       Honored to Serve God!


"In my work as a youth minister, I have never worked with someone who has such an immediate and deep connection with today's teens.  Pete Espil has proven himself as a "Catholic Force To Be Reckoned With"  time and time again, not only through his daily work as a youth minister, but also his leadership of the 2006 Idaho Catholic Youth Conference, and his ongoing  creative contributions to the wildly successful Diocese of Boise Junior High  Summer Camp. Whether it's Catholic History, Liturgical Teachings, Bible Study, Prayer Meetings, Apologetics, or simply six feet of tattooed Catholic passion, Pete Espil is your man."

 Ben Geile, Coordinator of Catalyst Junior High Ministry
 St. Mark’s, Boise, Idaho
