Clergy
Very Rev. Raymond C. Schultz, V.F., is the Pastor of Holy Trinity Catholic Church and the Dean of the East St. Louis Deanery within the Belleville Diocese, Illinois.
“My vocation journey has certainly been one that has been very winding. I’m a convert to Catholicism. I was baptized Presbyterian, but I was raised a Methodist.” Eventually going so far as to study Eastern Religions, it was through the guidance of the Jesuits “who led me back to Christianity.”
Father Ray can be contacted via email at frray@holytrinityil.org.

Rev. Anthony Ogutu Onyango is the Associate Pastor of Holy Trinity Catholic Church. Father Anthony, a native of Nairobi, Kenya, initially studied to be a priest in the Society of African Missions and later became a seminarian for the Belleville Diocese at the Bishop’s invitation.
“I first felt the call to the priesthood when I was in the fifth grade. What attracted me most was the celebration of the sacraments with community and the life of service, that I may serve God with all that I have and with all that I am. I pray that His love may guide us in all that we endeavor to do and achieve together.”
