Chris Williams, SJ

Hailing from the one and only Spearfish, South Dakota, Chris (a.k.a. “Spear”) is currently at Loyola University in Chicago to study Philosophy and Spirituality. He slowly marched up the ladder of city life from Omaha, to St. Paul , and now the Windy City - falling in love with bright lights of shows and symphonies and the plethora of great food and drink. The serene Black Hills and its people, however, will still always have a hold on his heart. He loves wasting money on going to movies in the theater, and most of all cherishes his family, friends, and being in the Society of Jesus.
