GRACE is excited to recognize another Outstanding Volunteer, Sr. Mariadele. St. Mariadele was presented with this award at a Mass on January 30th.

Each day, Sr. Mariadele dedicates her time and talents to supporting students at Holy Family Catholic School in countless ways. She works one-on-one and in small groups with students who need extra academic support, patiently guiding them through challenges and celebrating their successes. In preschool, she lovingly assists during lunch, helping our youngest learners develop independence while ensuring they feel cared for and encouraged. As a co-teacher in Religion, she brings depth and wisdom to the classroom, enriching students’ understanding of their faith and inspiring thoughtful discussions. Beyond these roles, she is a living example of vocational life, modeling a deep commitment to God’s call and inspiring students to explore how they, too, are called to serve.

We are incredibly blessed to have Sr. Mariadele as part of our GRACE family. Her kindness, patience, and unwavering commitment to our mission enrich the lives of students and staff alike. Her work is not just a volunteer effort—it is a ministry of love, and for that, we are deeply grateful.

GRACE is pleased to recognize another Outstanding Volunteer, Ana Lilia Flores. Ana was presented with this award at a Mass on January 24th.

Ana, her husband Juan, and their three daughters have been an integral part of the St. Bernard School community since 2021.

Ana demonstrates an unwavering commitment to the school and its mission, showing up time and time again to support our school in both big and small ways. She has been a consistent presence at after-school activities and weekend events. She has also been a strong advocate for St. Bernard, referring new families to our school, and helping to build a welcoming, warm, and inclusive environment for all. Her positive energy and passion for our community have touched everyone she meets.

One area where Ana’s dedication truly shines is in her involvement with our lunch program. She selflessly volunteers her time to help serve meals to our students and supports our food service team, always with a smile. Her support ensures that the lunch period runs smoothly and efficiently, and it is deeply appreciated by both the staff and students.

Ana, your time, effort, and dedication have made a real difference at St. Bernard. Thank you, for all that you do. We are incredibly grateful for your kindness, support, and the heart you put into everything you do!

Today, we are honored to recognize Mrs, Shelly Coyle as an outstanding volunteer. Shelly was presented with this award at a Mass on December 19th.

Shelly is a familiar and beloved face at St. John Paul II Classical School and Chesterton Academy of St. John Paul II Classical School. She is a mother of four, and her two youngest daughters attend Chesterton. As a part of the initial parent group that helped found the elementary and high school, Shelly has participated in many aspects of the school since – as a classroom teacher, office sub, and an outstanding volunteer for any and every role. No matter what needs may arise, Shelly is always willing to give of her time and talents–which are many!

SJPII and Chesterton headmaster Patrick McKeown stated, “Mrs. Coyle is certainly a servant’s servant, providing her expertise and wisdom whenever asked as well as looking for ways to creatively be of use and purpose. She is an invaluable member of our school community!”

Thank you, Mrs. Coyle!
