Coordination Team

Diane Lepage

Diane began working with the Oblates through St. Mary’s Province MAMI in 1996 and was an active participant in forming the new reality of AMMI Lacombe Canada MAMI. Serving as a member of the Coordination Team and Executive Director, Diane is genuinely touched by the generosity, compassion and dedication of our MAMI donors for the Oblates and our missions around the world. Diane is married to Bernard Lepage and they have one son and daughter-in-law. As a family, the Lepages have had the opportunity to meet and share life with many Oblates in Canada and abroad, cherishing each of these relationships.

Administrative Assistant

Tanya Myrfield-Wolfe

Meet Tanya, a member of the MAMI Lacombe Canada family since late 2022.  As the Administrative Assistant, Tanya plays a vital role in ensuring smooth communication with donors and efficient processing of gifts within the MAMI Oblate Mission office.  Whether you connect with her over the phone or through e-mail, you can expect her to fill your day with cheerfulness.

Tanya’s journey with the Oblate family has a deep-rooted history as the Myrfield/Reiter family has been actively engaged with the organization for many years.  However, her recent role has given her a unique opportunity to contribute directly to the missions and values she holds dear.  What brings Tanya immense joy is the prospect of her three young children being able to immerse themselves in the same culture of compassion and enthusiasm that has resonated with her and her family for years.
