Pastoral Associate for Parish Ministriesgschrankmw.twcbc.comI feel so blessed to be able to serve St. Mary Navilleton in this position. My husband, Lenny, and I were young parents when we moved to the area and became parishioners. It was here in this faith community that I began wanting to serve the church; I discovered how God's grace was manifested when I said "yes" to the many ministries offered, so I was eager to get involved. I volunteered and helped however I could and developed respect and admiration for the people of Navilleton.
Lenny and I have three daughters, Nicki, Becca and Sarah, who were very involved at St. Mary Navilleton, while growing up. They attended Faith Formation and were educated in the faith through the dedicated catechists. The vibrant music and youth ministries offered also gave them ways to serve, which helped form them into the people they are today.
St. Mary Navilleton is a wonderful place to work and pray. I am thankful for this opportunity to give back in some small way, and I hope to be able to share God's love through the work I do.
