Attention, all those who are feeling called to join the Catholic Church, to receive the Sacraments of Baptism, Eucharist, and/or Confirmation -- or simply to grow in your understanding of the Catholic faith if you've been away from the Church for a while. We would like to hear from you! A new season of inquiry, RCIA, and sacramental preparation sessions is starting up now. Contact our Parish Office at 708-771-8250 or by email here and learn what programs we have to enrich your faith and spiritual life.

New Manager Brings a Combination of
Business and Non-Profit Experience to St. Luke

St. Luke welcomes Daniel R. Szymanski, Jr., as our new Director of Operations. He officially started on June 19.

    Daniel grew up in nearby Oak Park and attended St. Giles Grade School, Fenwick High School, and the University of Notre Dame. He worked for over 15 years at Motorola, first as an engineer and then in various business positions in product planning, operations, quality management, and strategic planning.

    Along the way, he earned an MBA from the University of Chicago. For the past 10 years, he has been with Catholic non-profit organizations doing operations, financial, and fundraising work, including seven years as Director of Development and Executive Director at the Ukrainian Catholic Education Foundation.

    "I'm excited to be at St. Luke Parish because of its special combination of God and faith first, and service to others, excellence, and a friendly and caring community.”

    We are very happy to welcome Daniel as the newest addition to our staff!
