No nominations for the Parish Trustee/Secretary were received by deadline May 24th, 2021. Keith Trafton was nominated by myself, Fr. Dan Volkert. Therefore, there was not an election for the Trustee/Secretary this year. After Keith’s name was presented to the Archbishop, the President of our corporation, for ratification, Keith began his responsibilities as Trustee/Secretary July 1, 2021. I want to thank him for his willingness to serve the parish in this important role. I want to express a special thank you to John Morgen whose term as Trustee/ Secretary expired June 30th. John has served six years as Trustee/Secretary and has given wise council and dedicated service to our parish for a number of years. Thank you John! Our two Trustees effective July 1, 2021 will be Gary Schroeder as Treasurer and Keith Trafton as Secretary. Below is a Bio from Keith so that you can get to know him! Keith has been a St Paul parishioner since 1998. As one of the original families in the St Paul’s family program, his five kids remain very active in the Catholic faith as young adults; Keith has served as Eucharistic minister, and continues to participate in the dynamic Men's group, as a lector at Mass, and as a member of the finance committee.
