Prayer of Love

Dear God,

Expand my heart in new ways today, to understand the love

You have for me, to take that love deeply into myself, and to act from that love.

Amen.

  • Fast & Pray for Illinois

    Fast and pray initiative is regarding a state-wide effort to fast

    and pray every Friday for the leadership in the State of Illinois.

    This initiative was started by a group of concerned Lay Catholics

    from the Joliet diocese following the reversal of Roe v Wade

    and the impact it could have on this state. It is our intention

    to unite in prayer and fasting

    every Friday throughout the State.

    Parishes from all six dioceses have

    been or will be contacted to help spread the word.

    The Belleville Messenger posted an article in the September 29th issue regarding the importance of this initiative.

  • Respect Life Corner

     “Throughout salvation history, God has welcomed repentant sinners with special joy. Jesus concludes the parable of the lost sheep with these words: ‘there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who have no need of repentance’ (Lk 15:7)*.”

Pray the Rosary with your Parish!

On February 12, 2023, our parish began The Parish Rosary Program. Each week parishioners are requested to either email to the church secretary  sthenryc@peaknet.net or drop in the collection basket a slip of paper with the number of rosaries they prayed the previous week. Weekly, year-to-date, and grand totals will be printed in the church bulletin.

 

There are many reasons to pray the rosary: reparation for sin, world peace, political civility, the end of abortion, souls in purgatory, the intentions of the Holy Father, vocations, lukewarm and fallen away Catholics, marriages, and those in the most need of God’s mercy. But perhaps the best reason of all is by praying the rosary as Blessed Mother has requested, is that she will bring us closer to Jesus and in the process we will become more Christ like.

 

All adults and children are asked to participate. If you are unsure of how to pray the Rosary, there are instructions in the back of church.. 
 
14,654rosaries  recorded!
