Sr. Kathy's page.
In 2008, Sr. Kathy was named the MMOC Woman of the Year. In 2012 she was named a recipient of the Iverson Freking Award by Bethany St. Joseph Corp. Please pray for this woman who does so much for our parish members who tend to be out of sight: the elderly, sick, lonely, grieving, frail, and marginal. Kathy is our reminder that those we don't see are still sisters and brothers in our parish family. Let our prayer include them, too. |

Joseph van Oss |
We are called to use every gift, every tool to continue Christ's work. Today, the web and social media have to be part of how we reach out. We use the parish app, two websites, our blog, and Facebook. Joseph produces those communication channels and administers the parish email system. In November 2009 and June 2020 he was named MMOC Man of the Year. |

Therese van Oss |
In addition to her service to MMOC Parish, Therese also serves as Chaplain at the Bethany St. Joseph Care Center and Onalaska Care Center. In all three settings she is treasured for her gentle, inspiring presence. In November 2012, Therese was named MMOC Woman of the Year. She is also active as a musician with the La Crosse Concert Band. |
