SAINTS JOACHIM AND ANNE PARISH

ANNE PARISH 

Immaculate Conception Holy Day Masses

Luke was born on September 15, 1997. Luke is the youngest of four children. He has one older sister and two older brothers. Saint Michael the Archangel Parish is Luke’s home parish. Luke is a 2016 graduate of Mount Lebanon Senior High School. In 2021, Luke graduated from Baldwin Wallace University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Music Education. Luke’s most recent employment was as an IT Technician with Central Integrations, an IT Service Provider for several Catholic parishes and schools in the diocese. In Fall 2024, Luke was accepted into the priestly formation program to begin the Propaedeutic Stage of Formation Saint Paul Seminary.

For fun, Luke likes to cook new meals, follow Pittsburgh sports, and play wiffleball with his brother-seminarians.

A fun fact about Luke is that Fr. Tom Burke gave Luke his First Holy Communion when he was assigned to St. Paul’s Cathedral as a parochial vicar.

The Reporting Process

• Everyone is a permissive reporter and is encouraged to make a report of suspected child abuse. Reporters of suspected child abuse fall into two categories. 
• Mandated reporters are those adults who come into direct contact with children in the course of their employment or volunteer of a regularly scheduled program or activity, who accepts responsibility for a child.
• The trigger to report is a reasonable suspicion that a child is being abused.  Permissive reporters may report anonymously; mandated reporters may not.

• Reports of suspected child abuse are to be made immediately.
• If the child is in imminent danger, call 911
• Reports may be made orally by phone or electronically
  • Oral reports are made to ChildLine at 1-800-932-0313 which is available 24/7
  • Electronic reports are made via CWIS Self-Service portal at www.compass.state.pa.us/cwis
• Inform the supervisor or person in charge of your program that a report was made
