Celebrating some deacons

Archbishops George Lucas and Eldon Curtiss were on hand as the diaconate community of the Omaha Archdiocese celebrated deacons who had hit milestone years of service to the diocese. The picture above is of those who were ordained 10 years ago, including Deacon Mike Leick who was ordained in our parish.

 Also honored for 10 years were two couples still serving

 our parish, Deacon John Zurek and his wife Connie ...

... as well as Deacon Bill Hill and his wife Kathy.

Congratulations and

thank you for your service

Deacon Lieck

In the picture above from May 25, 1997, then Principal Christine Overkamp is breaking ground for an addition to St. Columbkille Catholic School as Fr. Stillmunks watches. One of the observers is then HSA President Mike Lieck.

In 2002 Mr Lieck was ordained Deacon Lieck. Archbishop Lucas has recently assigned Deacon Lieck to serve at St. Pius X Parish. We wish him well as he continues his service to the Church.
