Mary Jo Cole

My husband and I were drawn to OLG 25 years ago because of its welcoming community and outstanding school. Our daughter attended OLG from kindergarten through eighth grade and during those years, I served on the PSO board and chaired multiple committees. I have also served as a lector, Sunday School catechist, music leader for Sunday School, Children’s Liturgy of the Word and Vacation Bible School, director of the Jubilate Kids choir and producer of Faith Formation videos. 

I am a graduate of St. Catherine University and William Mitchell College of Law and my professional experience is in music education, law and nonprofit management. It is an honor to serve on the Parish Council, furthering OLG’s mission of making Jesus Christ known and loved.

Bryan is a shareholder with the law firm of Larkin Hoffman, practicing in the areas of real estate, zoning, construction, and eminent domain. Bryan graduated with highest honors from Hamline Law in 2013, and graduated magna cum laude from St. John’s University in 2010.  

Bud Janousek

My wife Rosemary and I have been members of OLG for approximately 35 years. We are both retired and have two adult children, a wonderful son-in-law, and three wonderful grandchildren. We are currently involved in many of the programs being offered at OLG; Sacristan Ministry, Eucharist Ministry, Communion to the home bound, D-Group, and Sharing and Caring Hands, to name a few. We also distribute all the food and clothing donations. We do this to give back what the OLG Community has given us (many prayers answered). OLG is a very important part of our lives. The OLG Parish Council is a very vital part of our parish, and I am thankful to be a member. 
God Bless, A Brother in Christ, Bud   

Thomas Meyer

I grew up very close to here in Minnetonka, attending St John the Baptist in Excelsior, but really grew in faith at the University of Minnesota's Newman Center. After college, I searched for growing and vibrant young adult communities in the Twin Cities. I was a part of Saint Paul's Outreach in college and am passionate about building those dynamic, faith-based communities in my life. Our Lady of Grace pulled me in with the breadth and depth of the young adult community here, as well as the 5:30 daily Mass! I have taught Confirmation for three years as well and look forward to serving on the PPC!

Jason Mosakowski

My wife, daughter, and I have been active parishioners since joining OLG in early 2015. We were drawn to OLG by the top-quality school and dynamic, welcoming parish community. I've been actively involved in the OLG Men's Club, including serving as the Men's Club Spirituality Leader for three years, during which time I led the Catholic Watchmen movement at OLG. My wife, Christina, and I have been marriage prep mentors for several years and have thoroughly enjoyed participating in this important ministry. I’m a regular lector, usher, and active member of the men’s choir.

Outside of OLG, I’m a mentor to seminarians at the SJV Seminary as part of the "Virtuous Business Leaders" program, and have been the Chair of the MN Advisory Board for Saint Paul's Outreach. Professionally, I’m the Vice President, International for an Edina based business with responsibility for our global operations. I’m looking forward to serving our parish and broader community as a pastoral council member as we work together to make Jesus Christ known and loved.
