ST. PATRICK PARISH
MISSION STATEMENT
We, the people of Saint Patrick Parish, are a Roman Catholic Community of the Archdiocese of Chicago. Joined in faith by the Sacraments,we exercise that faith by weaving God's Word into our multidimensional parish fabric of Evangelization, Prayer, Worship, Faith, Love, Education, Ministry, and Forgiveness.
We are guided by the Holy Spirit to reach outside our church walls to embrace and support each person; to help each and every "Child of God" develop and maintain a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. We are the people of God.
Due to Covid-19 crisis, all Masses and Liturgies are suspended until further notice.
*Televised, Recorded, & Streamed Masses are listed in the middle column of this page.
