Denise Brady

My name is Denise Brady, and I am the Parish Pastoral Council’s Christian Service Representative.  As a young adult I became a Catholic through RCIA (now OCIA) at my downriver neighborhood’s small parish, and it was a life-changing event.  My husband John and I have happily called St. Edith our other home for about 38 years.  Throughout that time, I have been actively involved in many ministries including Christian Service, OCIA, Family Life, Wedding Coordination, Funeral Vigils, Funeral Luncheons, CCD, Alpha, and currently Holiday Outreach which I have chaired for many years. I like St Edith because I continue to feel my faith life is enriched and strengthened here and because of the many friendly, faith-filled parishioners who inspire me in new ways to be a more welcoming and caring person.  The Parish Council members are just such people.  I feel fortunate to be working with them as we strive together to find more ways to bring Christ’s ministry to our parish community and others.
