  • The office is open by appointment only. Appointments may be made by email to stgertrude1420@stgertrudechicago.org or by phoning 773.764.3621.

We suggest a limit of four people.

Introducing Our New Office Manager/Receptionist

Meet Margie Guadagno

Hello. My name is Margie Guadagno. I am new to St. Gertrude and am very happy to be here.I look forward to meeting you and becoming part of the St. Gertrude community of faith. 


I am the new ‘front desk’ person that you will hear when you call the office or will meet when you come in person. Please be patient with me as I strive to learn your names and faces. 


I live in Lansing which is about 34 miles south of St. Gertrude. It is a bit of distance, but on a good traffic day, I find it’s slightly less than an hour's drive. Plus, who could complain about a drive on Lake Shore Drive enjoying the beautiful sight of Lake Michigan? I have four children, seven grandchildren, and one very new great-grandchild. 


I have worked at many parishes over the years, from St. Ann in Lansing (my home parish) to parishes in the far southwest part of the diocese (Orland and Tinley Park area) to even some time at the Archdiocesan Office of Divine Worship.


Every time I have started anew, there is some anxiety, but also a sense of hope that where God is leading me is the place I am supposed to be and that there are people there I am to meet and help. Life is a journey, as they say, and my job is to make the best journey I can with God’s help.


I look forward to learning about St. Gertrude and meeting many of you. In joy and peace until we come face to face!
