News & Events
Covid Care Kit Blessing Bag Supply Drive, March 20th/21st. The members of Girl Scout Troop 60200 have partnered with South Suburban PADS to assemble and donate Covid Care Kit Blessing Bags for the homeless people who utilize PADS shelter services. Their goal is to supply the homeless with personal hygiene materials to help them stay safe and healthy during the Coronavirus pandemic. Without regular access to running water, facemasks and other personal hygiene materials, the homeless are at much greater risk of catching and spreading this virus. We want to help them stay as safe as possible by hosting this supply drive. If you would like to donate items for our supply drive, the items most in need are: disposable facemasks, hand sanitizer - unscented, small/travel size containers, antibacterial Wet Wipes - small/travel size packets, tissues - small/travel size packets, bars of soap, toothbrushes and small toothpaste containers and hand lotion. Please place your items in the gray bin located in the Narthex before and after all masses March 20th/21st.

Also a big thank you to those who worked to facilitate this drive: Sheila and John Pacholski, Debbie and Brian Burzinski, Ann Carroll, Teri Sankey, Dan and Jerri LaRoche, Rich and Carol Bonnevier, Jim Ward, and Fabio Musto.

What does it mean? As a Minister of Praise you promise to pray and offer your sacrifices and sufferings and joys for the needs of the parish, the universal church and all prayer requests listed in our parish book of intercessions (located near the chapel). The pastor or designated parish staff member sends all ministers of praise a letter each month naming specific prayer intentions for that month. All parishioners are assured of being prayed for daily.

After all, the heart of our Church is the family. The mission of the Domestic Church Project is to do nothing short of change the world because we know in the home is where saints are made."

We still encourage people to pray with us online. If you would rather, you can View Online Masses at Home ![]() If you haven't already, please take a moment to view "In the Spirit of St. Francis" and "Lenten Reflections" messages from Staff members at St. Francis of Assisi.
![]() The next "Rosary for Life" is on Saturday, March 6th at 10:00 AM. We will not meet for this Rosary. Please join us and say your Rosary from home at this time. Our intention is the Sanctity of Life from conception to natural death as well as an end to the Covid Pandemic. Also, there are many Rosary videos on YouTube that you can follow if you find this helpful. On Saturdays we pray the Joyful Mysteries. We will continue our Rosary this way until we can again pray safely together in the building, or pray outdoors, weather permitting.
![]() The next Grief Support meeting is March 9, 2021, the 2nd Monday of the month at 4:00 pm in the Great Room. Grief is the normal response of sorrow, emotion, and confusion that comes from losing someone or something important to you. It is a natural part of life, however, we are not meant to go through grief alone. The group will be facilitated by Valerie Piazza LCPC. Join us and allow us to walk this journey with you. Please call the parish office708-460-0042 to register – limited to 10 participants. Remember your mask and social distancing.
