Statement of Purpose
The Parish Bulletin News section of the Archdiocesan website is provided for the convenience of bulletin editors so they can communicate information, primarily from the agencies and departments of the Archdiocese, to their parishioners through weekly parish print and electronic bulletins and newsletters.

Planning for Year of Sunday Mass
July 2012 to June 2013
The Strategic Pastoral Plan enters Year Two in July with Year of Sunday Mass.
We want to hear from people of all ages throughout the Archdiocese about why Sunday Mass is important personally and for the community. Tell us your stories and your thoughts about Sunday Mass and any suggestions you have about how to reach Catholics who rarely or infrequently come to Mass.
Simply click on View Points – What About Sunday Mass? on the
front page of the website, www.archchicago.org and share
your point of view.
Discovery Program
May 19-20, July 21, September 29-20
The Discovery Program is unique to marriage preparation programs
because it asks the engaged couples to devote a concentrated amount
of time and energy to their relationship. The focus of the program is
communication.

Memorial Day Mass will be celebrated on Monday, May 28, at
