Welcome Nicole!

Today Nicole Cook returns to the parish staff as the Coordinator of Disciple Formation. Nicole (pictured above with her husband Tyler) has been a member of St. Columbkille since 2003 when she came to the parish as the director of music ministry. She left for a few years to work at her alma mater, Creighton University, as the assistant director of alumni relations, but has now returned to St. Columbkille to work with the youth ministry and adult formation programs.

As Fr. Damian explains it, "Nicole will provide the oversight for all formation programs for young people in high school through parishioners who are enjoying retirement. She will not be doing all the formation herself; she will simply be the person who ensures that the formation programs are running smoothly."

Nicole says, "I have missed working full-time in ministry, and am very much looking forward to returning to work at St. Columbkille! I feel very blessed to be a part of such a great community, and hope that I will be as much of a blessing to those I work with, as I know they will be to me."
