Deacon Leon Noelker

I was employed by McDonnell Douglas for 34 years.  I retired in 1996 and was ordained a deacon that same year.  I have been involved with the RCIA process for 30 years and thoroughly enjoy the opportunity to help others learn more about our faith.  

I have also been involved with a number of evangelization activities throughout the years primarily consisting of some form of bible studies.  I do normal deacon duties such as assisting at Mass, Communion services at the nursing homes, bringing Communion to the homebound, baptizing infants and children and leading various forms of devotional prayers.  I have ministered the Sacrament of Matrimony on occasion.  

And most importantly, I have a wonderful, supportive wife who tries her best to get me to my appointments on time.
