Born on January 16, 1944 in Proszowice, Poland, Father Slodowski was ordained to the priesthood on June 12, 1968 for the Diocese of Kielce in Poland where he served prior to his emigrating to the United State in 1977.  He became a United States citizen on July 10, 1984, and was incardinated into the Archdiocese of Milwaukee on March 7, 1991.

Father Slodowski was in residence and served as a help out priest at St. Casmir, Ss. Cyril and Methodius and Our Lady Queen of Peace Parishes, Milwaukee, before being appointed on March 7, 1991 as the associate pastor at Our Lady Queen of Peace.  He began a study leave on July 1, 1992, and was appointed the chaplain for St. Joseph Home for the Aged in Kenosha, on March 11, 1997.  Father retired from active ministry on October 31, 2010.  He continued to say masses at several churches in Kenosha, Racine and Wisconsin Dells.
