Welcome to my website.

I have been involved in ministering with persons (male-female) in heterosexual prostitution since June 1972.

I "cast my net" by the way of the internet to have a network with YOU! On this website, you will find some of the many reflections and resources I want to share with you.

Update: Please Read my 1980 Masters Thesis: STREET MINISTRIES: With Emphasis on Female Prostitution (RTF) or Word document , and this Reflection (pdf) and this article (pdf) .

I hope to hear from YOU!

Father Depaul Anthony Genska, OFM

Father Depaul Genska, OFM (May 5, 1931 to September 13, 2010)

We just received word that Fr. DePaul Genska, OFM, passed away this afternoon (Monday, Sept. 13) at the Franciscan retirement home in New Jersey after suffering a massive stroke.

DePaul was a well-known and beloved figure at CTU for many years before his retirement due to declining health. He has worked at CTU in administrative services while pursuing his first love, an active ministry serving women who were involved in prostitution. DePaul was a compassionate figure who founded Genesis House, a facility that enabled persons in prostitution to move to a new way of life.

Please remember Fr. DePaul in your prayers.

A Message From the Webmaster

I was very sad to learn about the passing of my friend, Father Depaul. Who would have ever guessed a shared fondness for the tv show "West Wing" would have led to me helping Father Depaul put years of research and work onto the web? I have never met anyone as passionate about his calling as Father Depaul and I am blessed to have played a small part in getting this dream of his online.

I will continue to host his website as I believe it is an important resource to help a group of God's children that are marginalized and forgotten. If you have any questions about the website or updates, please contact me through my company's website.

Please remember Father Depaul and those he cared so much about in your prayers.
