“The Galik family of O’Fallon, MO shared the Christmas spirit again this year! Each year, they decorate their home in an elaborate display of Christmas lights set to music for the community to enjoy. For the past few years, they have collected donations from visitors to benefit Our Lady’s Inn. At the end of the holiday season, they brought the $3000 and many diapers they collected to OLI. We are grateful!”

“Most of us would agree that any organization’s ability to successfully carry out its mission is tied to the quality of its leadership. Be that a President, CEO, or Executive Director – the effectiveness of that person’s leadership, makes a difference. So, it’s easy to understand why it is mission critical to ensure the next leader will be the correct one, and the transition from one leader to the next will be as smooth as possible. This is especially true in maternity housing because of the deeply personal nature of the work. Leadership transition is critically important, and having a plan guiding that effort will help reduce the stresses which accompany such a transition. Succession planning takes focus and effort. It involves the Board of Directors working in partnership with the current leader.”
