Meet Our Parish Pastoral Associate, Sr. Denise Glazik, OP

I am the youngest of 14 children with 6 sisters and 7 brothers. I grew up on a farm near Paxton, Illinois. I enjoy all kinds of music, dancing, movies, cooking and visiting with friends and family. I love nature, especially the beautiful sunrises and sunsets, sitting by the water. I have a great sense of humor and consider myself a real "people person."

I entered the Springfield Dominican Sisters in August of 1988.  I earned my Bachelor's in Psychology from Governor's State University and my Master's in Theology at St. Norbert's College, De Pere,  Wisconsin. 

My ministry experiences have taken me to Springfield, Chicago, Peoria, East St. Louis and Bradley, Illinois as well as Navarino, Wisconsin (near Green Bay). Currently, I serve as Pastoral Associate at St. Joseph's Parish in Bradley, Illinois.

I love ministering to the people of St. Joe's. What I enjoy most here is that we minister to each other. It feels like God is at work. And, that's as it should be. The Lord has done great things for me and so I want to offer myself generously in service to others as my way of saying, "Thanks."
