Dear Friend,
Summer has finally brought us the hotter weather to which we are accustomed and dense smoke from Canadian wildfires to which we are not accustomed. We hope that you are staying cool, hydrated, and in good health. Amidst the increasing temperature, be sure to watch out for vulnerable friends and neighbors who may be affected by the heat.
Its good to remember that the City of Chicago has numerous cooling centers around the city which can be located online or by calling 311.
Whatever your summer looks like or wherever your journeys lead you, be sure to go with God and keep praising God for his many wonders!
Key notifications for the week ahead at Saint Andrew Parish are listed below.
Daily Mass Time Changing
Saint Andrew Parish celebrates the memorial of Christ's Death and Resurrection every day of the week! Parishioners are always invited to come and spend time in worship through our daily Mass. Starting Monday, August 3, 2026, the time for daily Mass held Monday through Friday will change to 8:30am. We hope this change will enable more people to frequent the grace of God's love found in the Eucharist.
Interested in Becoming Catholic?
Saint Andrew is starting the process for adults who wish to join the Catholic Church. If you know someone who is curious about Catholicism, would like to join the church from another Christian denomination, or would like to inquire about Baptism as an adult, let them know about the Rites of Christian Initiation for Adults and share with them the following webpage http://www.standrew.org/learn/rcia/ to find out more. Interested individuals can also email david@standrew.org to inquire.
