November 15, 2022Adriane, also fondly referred to at St. Al's as The Black Rhino, can often be found welcoming new faces to St. Al's, growing in meaningful relationships with the students, or being harrassed by Fr. Ben about being the Black Rhino (see below) who christened her with the name some time ago.
"There are not a lot of reasons why I am the Black Rhino, there's just been a whole lot that has happened since becoming the Black Rhino" -Adriane Limmex
In all seriousness, Adriane is an incredibly hard worker and one of the kindest people we've ever met.
"Growing up Catholic, I was blessed to know the basics of the faith at a young age, but it wasn't until my experience at a local Catholic camp in high school where I truly began to understand the Lord's love for me via the witness and the joy people my age had from a personal relationship with Christ.
"I had never realized just how deep and how personal of a relationship the Lord calls us to be in with Him. ( And God still continues to reveal this to me more and more each day!) This witness spurred me on to continue to pursue this kind of community and to seek out more about our Catholic faith which I found to be rich both in beauty, goodness, and truth. "
