Nicholas, Brenda and Francesca Dominguez have been members of OLA since the summer of 2002. It was at that time that Francesca was enrolled at OLA School as a third grader. Nicholas came to Ventura with his family in 1974. Brenda was lured away from San Diego by the promise of marriage. Since then Nicholas and Brenda have been happily married for almost 18 years. They think they have a good thing going. If you ask them what they love about OLA, they will take half an hour to tell you how Father Steve has made the Mass so personal and alive. “Stewardship is an opportunity to become involved in a vibrant Catholic community. There is an inner peace that comes from giving time to God.” which is what Nicholas would say, if he could speak like that. Brenda and Nicholas are currently involved with the teens in OLA Confirmation. Sometimes they do the teaching, other times they do the learning.
