My husband Flip and I joined the parish in January 2015 when we relocated to Dover from Yorktown, VA. I was a member of the RCIA team at our previous parish, so I immediately joined the RCIA ministry at this parish and served two years. I also served as a member of the Pastoral Council from 2017 to 2021, including as chairperson for two years. Although my undergraduate degree from a Jesuit university included a double major in theology, I realized later in life that I was rather ignorant of scripture and the teachings of the Church. However, by completing several scripture studies at my previous parish and my ongoing spiritual reading, I’m growing in understanding of and appreciation for my Catholic faith and realize just how deep and rich is the faith and how much more there is to learn.
