Written ‘Nods

Fr. Kevin P. Maloney

I want to give a huge shoutout to Father Maloney! The work he’s doing with the parish food pantry is incredible — so many families in our community are getting the support they need because of him. And it’s not just that — all the outreach projects he’s leading really show how much he cares about people and about keeping our parish connected. He’s always out there helping, guiding, and setting such an amazing example. Honestly, we’re so lucky to have him!

Fr. Christopher Ballard

I just want highlight, Father Ballard, for everything you do to support future priests. It’s so important to have a priest who really invests in the next generation, mentoring and guiding young men as they discern their call. The way you give your time, your advice, and your example makes a huge difference — not just for them, but for all of us who want the Church to stay strong and full of life. We’re lucky to have a priest who cares that much about the future while still leading your parish with so much heart and energy.  Thank you!

Fr. Thomas A. Cardone

Thank you, Father Cardone, for the steady, faith-filled presence you’ve been in the life of this school. Your work as chaplain has touched more students and families than you probably realize — the Masses, the retreats, the quiet guidance, the way you always managed to make faith feel personal and lived rather than distant or formal. You helped shape the heart of Kellenberg, and I’m grateful that my child was formed under the spiritual environment you cultivated. Thank you for leading with gentleness, joy, and a genuine love for the Marianist mission. It made all the difference.
