Fr. Aloysius (Luigi) was previosly appointed Priest Administrator of Sacred Heart and St. Joseph the Worker by his Grace, the Archbishop of Seattle in Battleground.
Fr. Aloysius comes to us as a diocesan priest of the Archdiocese of Kampala, Uganda. He was born and raised in Uganda, in a large peasant family of 8 siblings. As a young Seminarian, in 1983, during the political insurgency in central Uganda, Fr. Aloysius had a tragedy where he narrowly escaped death but had his parents, sister and brother massacred, leaving him as the surviving witness of the incident. Fr. Aloysius believes that because of his survival, God has a special mission for him.

Fr. Aloysius believes in the centrality of the Gospel values that aim to build a truly Christian community where all participate actively and have a contribution to make. He also believes that reaching out to all with care and love for spiritual nurturing is noble. Fr. Aloysius loves reading theology related literature, research, writing, and learning new languages. He also loves playing soccer, volleyball, and tennis.
