About

As a high school chaplaincy leader, I was always looking for new ways to help my students learn about the beauty of our faith, and designing escape rooms is a not-so-secret passion of mine. Then COVID-19 hit, and learning went virtual. Essentially, making this website was inevitable.

Hi! I'm Nick

I am blessed to be the director of evangelization and faith formation for my diocese, and have also been a youth minister and a chaplaincy leader in a number of elementary and high schools across the province. I have three quarters of a civil engineering degree (possibly where the affinity for designing escape rooms originated), as well as a Bachelor's degree in Thomistic Thought (Philosophy) from St. Philip's Seminary, and a Master's degree in Theological Studies from St. Augustine's Seminary. Helping young people learn about God and His incredible love for them has always been one of my favourite things to do.

I designed a site

My hope in building this site is that it will help young people (and maybe even not-so-young people) get excited about diving into the teachings and mysteries of the Catholic faith. I also hope to provide teachers and youth ministers with a tool that can be used as a starting place for dialogue and learning. And fun. Hopefully, lots of fun.

God bless you and your ministry/school/family! Thank you for taking the time to read this! Oremus pro invicem (let us pray for each other).

Mission

Our mission is to help others grow in their knowledge and love of the Catholic faith, by providing exciting and engaging resources that will assist teachers and catechists in teaching the faith in an authentic and impactful way.

Vision

To establish The Catholic Escape Room as an effective tool, used to augment traditional methods of teaching the faith, ultimately illuminating the truth, beauty and depth of Catholicism.
