The Twinning Committee is a sub-committee
of the Human Concerns Committee. They are very involved with
our twinning parish in Okolona. A few times a year parishioners
volunteer to go to Okolona for work details that do general
cleaning, light remodeling etc. Parishioners with teaching
or unusual talents have gone to Okolona for one week during
the summer to share their talents with young people. Committee
members are:
Denis & Judy L'Empereur, Pat
Greene, Katie Dykes, Steve Murphy, Ted Seda, Rosemary Baloun
and Mary Meisinger.
