Each month, the Knights of Columbus present this award to recognize a deserving family for their outstanding contributions to St. Christopher The Martyr Parish and School.
The Victor Family has been selected as the December 2022 Family of the Month. AJ and Theresa have been parishioners of St. Christopher the Martyr Parish for 37 years, having married here at St. Christopher Church on August 10, 2013. They proudly have three sons, two daughters, five grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren. The couple both retired in January of 2015, AJ, from law enforcement after serving 38 years and Theresa, from the home health care industry. Upon retirement, AJ joined the Knights of Columbus, and Theresa joined the Ladies Auxiliary. The entire Victor Family has been generous with their time and talents and are the embodiment of Christian values. We are so grateful for their tireless commitment to serving God within our parish and thank them for sharing their love and faith. May God richly bless them!
The Denny Family has been selected as the January 2023 Family of the Month. Andy and Brenda’s parents, Frank & Rosie Denny and Joe & Patty Bollinger, joined St. Christopher Parish in the early ‘70s and were extremely vital to the success of the parish and school. Their legacies live
on through their children, Andy and Brenda, who are actively involved and dedicated to both the school and parish. Andy and Brenda are St. Christopher alumni who worked summer camp, aftercare, and were active members of the CYO. Their son, Roman, who is currently a 2nd grader at St. Christopher, is following in their footsteps. Andy is a pediatric nurse at Ochsner and is a member of St. Christopher Men’s Club. Brenda is a kindergarten teacher at St. Christopher, now for 28 years, the financial director of the extended-care program, and a coach as well. Andy and Brenda currently help to operate the Food Pantry through St. Christopher’s Outreach Program. With the help of Roman and other volunteers, they package and distribute food boxes to families in need within St. Christopher Parish. As a family, they take part in numerous school and parish activities as well as attend Mass at St. Christopher. The entire Denny Family has been generous with their time and talents and are the embodiment of Christian values. We are so grateful for their tireless commitment to serving God within our parish and thank them for sharing their love and faith. May God richly bless them!
