Father Dan Jarosewic
Associate Pastor

To you, the Parishioners of St. Joseph:

As I begin my priestly ministry in your parish, let me give you some of my background.

I grew up on the South Side at St. John of God Parish and played ball in Sherman Park. I went through the Seminary schools for 12 years and was ordained in 1971.

I have served at St. Constance, St. Camillus and St. Mary Star of the Sea in Chicago; St. Linus and St. Catherine of Alexandria in Oak Lawn; and at St. Albert the Great in Burbank.

I am and always have been a Sox fan.

I am also a parish priest, now your parish priest. I have no outside jobs or interests to compete with my ministry with and for you. This is because I enjoy being a parish priest.

It will take a little time for us to get to know each other — my prayer for us is that we take that time.

It’s good to be here,

Father Dan Jarosewic
