On March 11, Cardinal Cupich informed the parish through the letter posted above that he has reaffirmed his earlier decision that all regular Sunday morning Masses of the merged parishes will be celebrated at Notre Dame de Chicago. Sunday morning Mass will continue at Holy Family during the transition, but will likely end on or before June 30, 2019. Weddings and baptisms that have been scheduled at Holy Family will still take place at Holy Family. Additionally, during the transition, requests for weddings and baptisms at Holy Family will still be accepted. Please click on the "Weddings" or "Baptism" buttons above for information.Read More -

Friday, March 22
Knowing about Jesus is part of our faith development; coming to intimately know Jesus leads to spiritual depth and transformation. Scripture, silence, and prayer are key to meeting Jesus heart to heart. This retreat is about your personal response to the question Jesus asks His disciples, "Who do you say that I am?" This weekend there will be an optional opportunity for movement and gesture prayer incorporated into the retreat. For example - gestures to the Lord's Prayer, a sign of the cross meditation, some simple movements to music in a prayerful way. For more information and to register, please click on the title link or picture.Read More -

Thursday, April 4, 8:00 PM
As Clavers we have a lot to pray about - our Family, our work, our community, our church and our Noble Order. We recognize prayer as a way to connect spiritually with God, “where one or more are gathered in my name, there I am” says the Lord. Prayer is also a way Clavers can connect with each other, as we pray together, there is nothing we cannot overcome. The Knights, Ladies, and Juniors are establishing a monthly conference call to recite the rosary. The Monthly Rosary Conference call-in number is (614) 715-3580 Access Code: 635-421-427.Read More -
