When Father Brian arrived at Saint Thomas Aquinas, he brought with him a unique perspective as someone originally from New Zealand. Settling into a new assignment is always filled with adjustments, but one detail brought him immediate peace of mind—discovering that the parish was already banking with Notre Dame Federal Credit Union.

“It’s wonderful to see the work that the credit union does and how they really operate as part of the community here.”

Fr. Brian was struck by how seamlessly Notre Dame FCU integrates into parish life. He noted that the credit union doesn’t just provide financial services—it offers a partnership rooted in shared values and an authentic commitment to serving others. As an added benefit, every new parishioner who joins Notre Dame FCU helps generate funds that go directly back to Saint Thomas Aquinas!

Fr. Brian’s story is one of many that highlight the value of partnering with a credit union that goes beyond banking—helping communities flourish with care, responsiveness, and genuine connection.
