When Ellie Maat was asked to be “Steward of the Week” she said, “Oh, there are others who are more deserving than I am.” Ellie has been a parishioner for over twenty years. She was married for fifty years and has two daughters, one lives here and the other lives in Northern California. Ellie is a retired nurse so she has been involved with our health fairs and blood drives. She is a Eucharistic Minister. Ellie says she is honored to be an EM, considers it a blessing and is happy to be part of that ministry. She plays the hand bells because she likes it! Ellie works at the Parish Center front desk every Wednesday and enjoys being part of the community. She is looking forward to her trip to Kenya in February.
