Catholics Come Home Begins in Advent at St. Matthew Parish
Are you a Catholic...
- Who over time slipped away from the church?
- Who occasionally goes to church and just doesn’t feel connected?
- Who feels the church has left you?
- Who has had “questions” and never found answers?
- Who has been angry and hurt for a long time … but who wants to let go of this pain?
- Who desires their children to grow in the Catholic faith?
We invite you to visit our parish in the coming weeks
Find or Rediscover...
- Home in this confusing world.
- God’s gift of forgiveness.
- Values that give real direction and purpose to your life.
- The Sacraments.
- The Church – that embraces saints and sinners.
- Peace through reconciliation.
Starting with our mass on Saturday, December 19, 2009, we lovingly invite all those who have drifted away, to come home, to find healing, answers to your questions and community of support.
Join us at St. Matthew Parish:
- We encourage you to visit our parish and learn more about our community. Before and after each mass Welcome Tables will be set up in the church where you are encouraged to pick up brochures for more information.
- At the Welcome Tables, you will be able to fill out contact information requesting further information. We will follow-up and contact you to answer your questions.
- Additionally, after each mass, we will be in the Lobby of the Church, to welcome those who would like to spend a little more time to have their questions answered or just to meet and talk with our parishioners.
How do I begin the process of returning to the church?
Contact our parish rectory at 847-891-1220.
Let our parish staff know that you would like to return. You can schedule an appointment to speak with our Pastor, Father Joseph Glab, CR, find out the times for Mass or inquire about the events and programs available for adults: Scripture study, prayer groups, mens/womens clubs, service opportunities, etc. You may want to ask about the parish schedule for Reconciliation. A simple step-by-step guide for the Sacrament of Penance can be provided to you.
