Early Life and Education

Durkin started for Bowling Green from 1997 to 2000 as both defensive end and linebacker, before earning his master’s in business marketing before becoming a graduate assistant for Notre Dame before eventually taking over defensive coordinator duties in 2003.

Pam Allmandinger, health care representative at both parishes, reported one senior who told her the retreat transformed their life completely.

Though now retired from his duties as a priest, Father Peter continues to help others. Pam Allmandinger recalls seeing Father Peter bring Christ Renews His Parish program to St Joseph. Participants enjoyed it so much they provided testimonials.
