My name is Eileen McNichols and I have been a parishioner of St. Bernadette’s for 33 years. I have raised 4 children in the parish and was a catechist for CCD when my children were in grade school. For the past 10 years I have been actively involved in the music ministry here at St. Bernadette’s and have been a Proclaimer of the Word for the past several years as well. The past 3 years I have worked with several other women in the parish to provide opportunities to share our faith through the Living Rosary, a parish trip to the Shrine of Christ’s Passion and an Advent afternoon of reflection for women. I am a graduate of Mother McAuley High School, hold bachelors and masters degrees in nursing from Saint Xavier University and have been a nurse for 36 years. I am excited about the energy and ongoing commitment I sense in the parish and look forward to serving our parish as a Parish Council Member.
