All Saints Greek Orthodox Church Clergy
Fr. Anastasios Theodoropoulos
Presiding PriestEmail: allsaintsjoliet@gmail.com
Fr. Anastasios grew up in the north suburbs of Chicago. Though raised in the Orthodox Faith, it was not until his college years at the University of Illinois that he developed a passion for the Church and deep desire to know Christ. Upon graduation, Fr. Anastasios enrolled at Holy Cross Greek Orthodox Seminary, where he was able to indulge his desire to enrich and enliven his life in the Orthodox faith. In 2014, he married his wife Presvytera Elizabeth, they have three children, Renna, Anna, and Spyridon. That same summer, they moved to St. Louis, Missouri to serve at Assumption Greek Orthodox Church, where he was ordained to the Holy Priesthood in May of 2015. Fr. Anastasios served in St. Louis for 5 years as an associate pastor before being transferred to All Saints of Peoria, IL in September of 2019. Again in 2019 he was called to take on a new role at All Saints, in Joliet. He has a deep passion for sharing the Orthodox faith, and works to inspire the faithful Orthodox Christians of Joliet to live their faith, and share it with our friends and neighbors. He welcomes all who seek God to come and see how Orthodox Christians have encountered Christ for centuries.
