BEST OF LUCK LIAM!

oh, HI!


WE WILL MISS YOU!


With equal and large measures of both sadness and gratitude, we here at BSM announce that Liam O’Donnell will be leaving our staff in June to pursue new opportunities. Liam came to us in 2008 as part of our internship program and became the “intern who wouldn’t leave”. He joined our staff as the Arts Marshal, creating from scratch a pioneering arts and culture model at BSM, welcoming a broad variety of artists and visitors through our doors.

Liam also created our service learning partnership with several high schools in the region, Visioning the Good Society - a powerful blend of both educational material and very practical life experiences. Liam organized and facilitated for these young people a portal into the lives of some of our most vulnerable neighbors in Philadelphia.


Over the years, Liam has been one of BSM’s most enthusiastic evangelists - leading worship, coordinating volunteers, creating the Saturday meal model, maintaining our complicated calendar, or representing our community at gatherings across the city. We are sad to lose his input and vision, but also encouraged to send him forth into what we know will be an awesome future. Liam leaves behind a legacy of dedication, hard work and creativity, and he will be sorely missed.
