Wayne Giacalone
Elder
Wayne and his wife Amy have been attending Cf since 2007. Wayne loves the gospel of John especially the last verse which he describes as "a doozy." He reads a lot of Marilynne Robinson and Christian Wiman so if you do too he'd love to talk about that. He's a Sox fan but his wife loves him anyway.
