Donna Kopan, Church Receptionist
Donna, dubbed the office Den Mother, brings the perfect balance of strong Christian faith, warmth, compassion and organization to her job. She came to FPC in January of 2006 after working for Lands’ End for 14 years.
Donna grew up in beautiful Door County, WI. She earned a BS degree in Social Work at UW Oshkosh. After graduation, Donna got involved in a Christian communal ministry where she met her husband, Gary. Eventually, Gary and Donna left the movement and ended up in the Madison area where they started a family. Donna was a full time mom for 12 years raising their 3 children. Her husband has been with Intervarsity Christian Fellowship for over 23 years. They are enjoying being first time grandparents and emptynesters.
Always drawn to a ministry of caring, Donna became a trained Stephen Minister at her church and has served in that capacity for almost 10 years. Her office is the hub of activity where people seem to be drawn into her warm and inviting personality. She is the keeper of the master calendar, the contact point for any building use, and oversees the process of scheduling a wedding at FPC.
Donna enjoys reading, meeting friends over a cup of coffee, spending time with family and enjoys the outdoors. She is beginning to cultivate more of her creative side by dabbling in photography, scrapbooking and making greeting cards.
