Lifted Up

We are grateful for all those who are making an effort to send in their contributions either through the mail or by dropping them off at the church or parish office.  We’re also grateful to those who are giving electronically at Give Central—which is becoming more popular in today’s world, and another way to give when you’re not physically present.  Our mission is to be able to build up the Body of Christ in our world around us, and we’re making every effort to keep it going. Thank you for continuing your support in these extraordinary times.    

This event, scheduled for June 7, has been postponed. Details to follow.

Cardinal Blase Cupich announces agreement with the State of Illinois on the gradual reopening of Catholic Churches.

We’re forming Virtual Groups to bring us together. We believe that for us to flourish in our relationships with God & people we need to prioritize being in real relationship with others who are also pursuing Jesus. These groups will meet online once a week for 4 weeks. We’ll focus on building relationships, discussing the Sunday scriptures, and caring for one another.

The Saint Hubert Job and Networking Ministry continues in its mission to assist the job seeker and job changer with the introduction of “virtual” Accountability/Job Support Group meetings, each Monday, at 9:30 AM via Zoom. The meetings are a way to address your careering and job connection concerns with one of our team members, as well as one another, learn more about the resources available to job seekers, and to share information and support with a small group of attendees.
