On March 16, I was taken unconscious to University Hospital in Madison, suffering from heart, kidney, and lung failure.
I still don’t remember my first two days in the hospital. When I regained consciousness, I was shocked to find myself in the ICU with tubes connecting me with life-support systems.
MADISON — Ten years ago, Msgr. Ken Fiedler of Our Lady Queen of Peace Parish had “keys to an empty building, no money, and no staff” after he boldly decided to take on the task of operating the Catholic Multicultural Center (CMC) when the Diocese of Madison shut it down due to budget concerns.
On August 3, 2009, the CMC reopened under Our Lady Queen of Peace Parish with a budget of $250,000, a staff of four, and a handful of community programs, including a free meal three times a week.
MADISON — Knights of Columbus Council 4527 has donated its building located at 5256 Verona Rd. in Fitchburg to Our Lady Queen of Peace Parish in Madison to enhance the ministry of the Catholic Multicultural Center (CMC).

Our Lady Queen of Peace Parish, Madison, has offered to assume primary responsibility for the operation of the Catholic Multicultural Center in Madison.
There aren’t many pastors who would willingly let someone throw a cream pie in his face.
But Msgr. Ken Fiedler did just that — for a price. At the recent Bolserpalooza fund-raising event for Steve Bolser, the long-time principal at Our Lady Queen of Peace School, Monsignor Fiedler agreed to make himself a target in the pie-throwing contest for $1,000.
