ABOUT OUR STAFF
Our Pastors
Fr. Dustin Boehm
I was Baptized on September 25, 1983, at Holy Name Catholic Church in Beech Grove, Indiana. Thanks to my parents and our Lord, that day was and remains the most important day of my life. I grew up on the Southside of Indianapolis where I attended Our Lady of the Greenwood Parish and School, as well as Roncalli High School. Next, I entered St. John Vianney College Seminary in St. Paul, MN. Upon graduation in 2006, I went to St. Meinrad Seminary and School of Theology until the Spring of 2011. After nine years in seminary, I was finally ordained a priest on June 4, 2011. I began my priestly ministry as Associate Pastor at St. Monica Church and chaplain at Cardinal Ritter High School until 2014. In July of that year, I arrived at what is now home: Saints Gabriel and Bridget Parishes.
Fr. Matthew Perronie
I grew up in the country in Lizton, Indiana, and I am an only child. I grew up living next door to my grandmother and would spend the weekends with her. When I was in 3rd grade, I started going to Mass with her as I was not raised Catholic. I was baptized and received my first communion on April 3, 2010, at the Easter Vigil, and I was confirmed on May 9, 2011. When I was a senior in high school, I decided to go to seminary to see if the Lord was calling me to be a priest. I went to Marian University and Bishop Simon Bruté College Seminary in Indianapolis, and I graduated from there in May of 2018. I then went to Saint Meinrad to continue my seminary formation, and I graduated from there in May of 2022. I was ordained on June 4, 2022, and became the associate pastor of St. Monica in Indianapolis. In July of 2023, I became the associate pastor of St. Gabriel and St. Bridget Parishes.
