Parish Priest

Father Jeremy Freehill

Father Jeremy Freehill

Father Jeremy Freehill grew up in the Tri-County area and was ordained to the holy priesthood through the laying on of hands and the invocation of the Holy Spirit on May 25, 2013 by Most Reverend Daniel R. Jenky. It was a moment of grace that he had been prepared for within his family, his small town community, Illinois Central College in East Peoria, Saint Mary’s University in Winona, MN and at Mount Saint Mary’s University in Emmitsburg, MD. 

His previous missions include being a parochial vicar at the Parish of Saint Pius X in Rock Island, chaplain at Alleman Catholic High School in Rock Island, and Catholic Chaplain at Augustana College in Rock Island, IL too which gave him invaluable experience serving at a college within the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Ameria tradition.

He arrived here on July 8th 2020.
