Fr. Witek arrived in Orchard Lake on April 12, 2022 after ministering in various locations assigned by the Salvatorian Order, spending several years in Italy and in the African nation of Tanzania. We are so very grateful for his caring and cheerful presence here
as our spiritual leader. Congratulations, Fr. Witek, and thank you for giving your life to serve us!
