Mr. and Mrs. Murphy Peele

A chaplain at Lexington Medical Center, Donna Peele met her husband Murphy at a ministry retreat they were planning for singles. A year later, they didn't need to attend the retreat. The couple has built a life together based on devoted ministry and humble, sacrificial service to others. They helped start the Foundation's Pastoral Care Fund and want to see it continue to provide supportive items and training for chaplain ministry.

The Peeles' gift of a tithe through their will to the Lexington Medical Center Foundation is an extension of their belief in practice, to honor God and serve as an example for their children. They believe, just as they live their lives, that
"love requires that you do something. You don't just get to feel it — you have to do something about it."

The Peeles elected to give a specific percentage of their estate to the Lexington Medical Center Foundation through their will, and they further designated the gift to be used to support the Pastoral Care Fund.
