Congratulations and thank you, Debbie!

Today the staff was blessed to celebrate a very special woman. For 30 years (and still going!), Debbie Mahler has been the first point of contact, the constant in the storm, the peaceful presence. Her love for our parish and our Lord radiates. We could never thank her enough for the years of love and devotion to Our Lady of Peace. Her 30-year anniversary is this Sunday, February 1, so if you see her at Mass, be sure to say "Congratulations...and THANK YOU!"

We’re proud of this former OLP Tiger! Thank you, Ilse, for sharing your gifts!

Congratulations to Ilse Williams ’27, Bishop Watterson Volunteer of the Month for December! Ilse is a talented cellist who has been perfecting her craft over the last eight years. As a member of the Our Lady of Peace Music Ministry, she plays the cello during Saturday evening masses. During the holiday season, Ilse found a way combine her passion for music with service, by performing concerts to bring holiday spirit and cheer to the residents at several retirement communities. Ilse said the residents’ smiles and engagement during her concerts confirmed her decision to provide this musical service.

This past year, Ilse joined a friend to volunteer during a service day at Level the Playing Field, an organization that gives kids in under-resourced communities the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of youth sports participation. Ilse has continued to volunteer there, sorting through donations of used and excess sporting equipment which are then donated to programs and schools serving low-income communities.

Ilse - your service is a wonderful expression of Christ’s love—thank you!
