Julie Gerwe grew up in Cincinnati within a large Catholic family where God, faith, and family were central to her upbringing. Twenty-seven years ago, Julie married Roger and has raised four children. She has let her love of God show through in her volunteering in her community and Church over the years. She loves talking to people about her Catholic faith and her faith in God to anyone who is willing to listen because Julie loves to talk. She loves working with the children of the parish. She feels that planting the seed of our Catholic faith into the young is very rewarding. As Julie's parents would say “planting the seed of faith and nurturing it through your action is all God asks of you. God will be the caretaker.”
