At Twenty-Two Years In Age , He Bought His First Property ; In A Four-Year Span, He Purchased 3 Project Properties, Fixed Them Up, Then Sold Them Off.
Pop Joe Noonan didn't always know he would have liked to be a priest.
As a 20-something, he spent a few years buying and re-building living spaces in the Chicago area. After he graduated from Purdue School with a degree in accounting, he became a Certificated Public Accountant for Ernst and Young, and leaped into the "flipping" business. At twenty-two years of age , he purchased his first property ; in a four-year span, he acquired three project properties, fixed them up, then sold them off.
"I love taking something that's rough up, and making it look nice," Noonan said.
At some specific point, though, earning profits became less critical. As an alternative his focus shifted to helping folk.
"There's a lot more joy in helping folks, working as a community," he revealed.
He continued to work with his hands, with Habitat for Humanity. Then he worked as a cook at a soup kitchen. Right after that, he traveled with his folks to Medjugorje, Bosnia.At first he was in Medjugorje hotel when he come to Medjugorje. It was there he started feeling a tug toward the church. Prior to that, he admits he "wasn't the best practicing Catholic."
After putting aside his reconstruction business, he started working for his ma and pa, Bobbi and Joe. Together, they own and operate Bobbi Noonan childcare centres. He worked for them for four years, during which he traveled back to Bosnia and felt convinced of his calling to church.
He entered the seminary at the College of St. Mary of the Lake in Mundelein. He emerged four years later with a master's degree in religion. After being ordained, he worked as an associate priest at St. Francis Borgia in Chicago. He then returned to the seminary to work as a vocational director. He remained there until recently, also helping out at St. Stephen in Tinley Park.
His pastor role at St. Damian, then, is his first fulltime role back at a church. But his family's name is not new to the parish. His mum and dad previously owned a home on El Vista Drive, and were founding members of the parish. He's thrilled to be back where his mom and dad started.
"It's the best parish in the world," he said, smiling. "These first six months, I just wish to listen and learn. Tap into what's being joyfully, successfully done."
He latterly attended his first girls basketball game (fifth grade) and helped out with a food cupboard delivery. He's impressed with the parish community.
"I felt extraordinarily welcomed by people," he announced. "I'm genuinely excited by peoples community to religion, and the community's religion. The staff is extraordinarily committed, terribly talented. The commitment level by volunteers is outstanding."
