Fr. Steve Brunovsky joined the St. Hilary Parish community as pastor on March 15, 2007. As is tradition, Fr. Steve immediately became a member of the Foundation board. Fr. Steve is originally from St. Columbkille Parish in Parma, and grew up in Seven Hills. He attended Padua Franciscan High School, Borromeo Seminary College, and St. Mary Seminary in Cleveland. He was ordained a priest for the Diocese of Cleveland on May 30, 1992, and began his ministry at St. Paul Parish in Akron. In 1997 he was transferred to St. Mary Parish in Hudson. In 2003 he was transferred to St. Francis Xavier Parish in Medina. When Fr. Steve arrived as pastor here at St. Hilary, he was delighted to find the Foundation in place as a means of support for the parish ministries, and has helped the Foundation grow through his own enthusiastic support.

“The longevity of our Foundation is cutting-edge in the Catholic Diocese of Cleveland. While many parishes are in the beginning stages of establishing a parish foundation, we are truly blessed that ours is thriving and growing. The Foundation has helped us secure the future of our school and church.”
