Dear Saint Andrew Families,
It's time to kick off the holiday season with a little Christmas magic! We are excited to invite you to Santa's First Stop of 2026!
Join us for a festive morning with Santa and Mrs. Claus. Enjoy photos, holiday crafts, sweet treats, and time together as a Saint Andrew community. It's a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the season, reconnect with friends, and make new ones!
🎅 Santa's First Stop of 2026
When: Saturday, November 14 | 9:00 AM–12:00 PM
Where: Saint Andrew Chapel | 1725 W. Addison Street, Chicago
Cost: Free! We invite each family to bring a $25 unwrapped children's toy or gift card to benefit Catholic Charities.
Santa makes his grand entrance at 9:00 AM, so come early and enjoy the excitement! Families can participate in crafts, activities, and fellowship before and after their reserved Santa photo time. Don't forget your camera or phone!
Reserve Your Santa Photo Time Here
And please invite your friends and neighbors! While the activities are focused on children 2-7 years old, this event is open to our entire neighborhood. Â We'd love for you to share the Saint Andrew spirit with families who may not yet know our school or parish. There's no better way to introduce someone to Saint Andrew than by welcoming them into the community that makes it so special.
We look forward to celebrating the beginning of the Christmas season together!
In cordibus Jesu et Mariae,
Father Hank Lyon
