Sr Melanie Maczka, SSCSr Melanie Maczka, SSC

Sister Melanie came to St. Willebrord almost before Abraham.  She is in her 24th year with us.  Father Ambrose Peeters invited her to come on a very limited basis 24 years ago while she was working for the diocese.  Then in 1981 she began working for us full time.  Sister Melanie is a member of the religious order Society of Sisters for the Church.  It is an order of fairly recent origin and was founded in New Jersey.  She comes from a family of five children with her siblings scattered throughout the country.  Her brother John lives in California, brother Wally lives in North Carolina and sisters Joan and Bernie live in Virginia.  Although she was born and grew up in Chicago there are only a couple of nephews that still live there.

During her time with us Sr. Melanie has worked in just about every area of ministry.  Presently she works with the English speaking people in the areas of liturgy, RCIA, as well as a variety of areas with the Spanish speaking people.  One can usually find her on the scene of most of the activities that occur in our parish.  She also conducts wake services, communion services and other services when needed.  She works tirelessly for the people of our community and is loved and respected not only by the members of our parish but by many in the Green Bay community as well.

Durante su tiempo con nosotros la hermana Melanie ha trabajado en muchas áreas del ministerio. Recientemente ella trabaja con los Americanos en las áreas de: liturgia, RICA, servicios de funerales y de comunión así como con los hispanos. Usualmente podemos encontrarla en la mayoría de las actividades que tenemos en nuestra iglesia. Ella trabaja incansablemente para la gente de nuestra comunidad y es querida y respetada no solamente por los miembros de nuestra parroquia sino por toda nuestra comunidad.
