FERGAL REDMOND
 GALWAY, IRELAND

My friend, Fergal, is a dedicated fellow volunteer down in the island missions of the Caribbean - Saint Vincent and the Grenadines in particular. We arrived there about the same time. He is full time and I am part-time. 

He volunteered after taking care of his wife, Catherine, who died in Ireland after an extended sickness. I arrived because of meeting Bishop Jason Gordon at Saint Meinrad when I was about to retire. 

Fergal has become a good friend. We connect by skype about every week. As a retired CPA, he oversees the finances of the diocese down there.  

He works very hard and takes no salary. In reality, he is always spending his own money. Therefore, I decided that he needed a real vacation. With my frequent flyer miles I bought him a round-trip ticket from Barbados to Louisville. 


CO-HOST
BETH KOLODEY

RECENT ISLAND KIDS' COMPUTER CAMP DIRECTOR





The drop-in reception will be co-hosted by Ms. Beth Kolodey who just recently returned from directing our very first "island kids' computer camp." 
Come and meet her and her husband, Bill, and let her share her experiences.
