"I Should Have Been a Monk..." - by Patti Defilippis "We weren't married yet, but I felt instinctively that the example of Bill and Donna Dugaw was what I wanted in family life - a selfless love of their children, and a persevering prayer for every one of them as they moved away into their own lives." What ranks chief among the blessings that come from thirty years of ministry? For Patti, wife of Leonardo Defilippis and Director of Development at SLP, it's the relationships that have formed throughout the journey. Here she pays tribute to Bill and Donna Dugaw, longtime supporters of Saint Luke Productions, and inspiring examples of Catholic family life.
