Sr. Kathy Stuttgen,
FSPA |

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. |
