Sexton Peter Chmelik
Peter Chmelik is Trinity's sexton, which is an old English church work for a custodian, someone who ensures that Trinity's beautiful buildings stay clean, safe, and beautiful. Peter is our newest staff member, having joined us just a few months ago.
Peter was born in Ripon and raised in Green Lake. He grew up with a wide range of loves: fishing, running around in the woods, playing all sports, skateboarding, music and art. After high school, Peter went to UW River Falls for a horticulture degree with an art minor. While there, he became heavily involved with the ancient art of glassblowing. He lived in River Falls for nearly a decade, but recently moved back to the Fox Valley to be close to home.
In addition to his work at Trinity and another church in town, Peter hangs out with old and new friends, and spend his spare time doing fine-point rock balancing, carpentry, and fishing.
