The construction of our New Parish Building is on it's way!
Registration
Why should you register?...To become a part of the St. Mary Church Family. If a parishioner is not registered, it is difficult for us to issue testimonial letters, recommendations, references, etc. If we are to testify to your ability for sponsorship in Baptism, Confirmation, or witness at a Catholic Marriage, you need to be registered and participate in the Mass on a regular basis. Parish registration is also necessary for at least four months before arranging a Baptism or a Wedding. All new families are welcome to St. Mary Church and should be registered in the parish. this should be done as soon as possible. If you are new in the parish and wish to become a registered member, please call the rectory and let the secretary know. A registration form will be sent to you.
Registro Parroquial
¿Por qué registrarse?...Para ser parte de la Familia de la Iglesia de Santa Maria. Si un feligrés no esta registrado, es muy difícil para nosotros expedir cartas testimoniales, recomendaciones, referencias, etc. Si nosotros tenemos que testimoniar su habilidad de apadrinamiento en Bautismo, Confirmación, o como testigo en un Matrimonio Católico, usted necesita estar registrado y participar de la Misa frecuentemente. También es necesario que este registrado en la parroquia, por lo menos por cuatro meses, para poder Bautizar o para Casarse. Toda familia nueva es bienvenida a nuestra parroquia y se les exhorta a registrarse lo más pronto posible. Si usted es nuevo en la parroquia y desea registrarse, favor de llamar a la rectoría. Le enviaremos por correo una forma de registro.

Holy Name Society
The Holy Name Society is an organization of the parish that has been vital to the school and the church. Many of the projects that are done by the Holy Name aren`t big fundraisers but rather smaller "Manpower" type jobs. We have our monthly meeting on the second Thursday of every month at 7:o0 PM at the School hall. We have a delicious meal after a short business meeting. We look forward to welcoming you to our next meeting and sharing fellowship in Christ with you.
Sociedad del Santo Nombre
Somos una organización de la parroquia que ha sido escencial tanto para la Iglesia como para la escuela. Muchos de los proyectos que hemos hecho no son grandes recaudaciones de fondos sino "poder masculino". Nos reunimos el segundo jueves de cada mes a las 7:00 PM en la escuela. Tenemos una deliciosa cena después de hablar de negocios. Esperamos verte en nuestra siguiente reunión para brindarte nuestra amistad y compartir nuestro amor por Cristo.
Welcome Committee
The Welcome Committee helps ease new parishioners into St. Mary`s Community. Each newly registered parishioner receives a welcome letter in the mail, which is followed by a phone call from a committee member. It is a marvelous warm way to exted a hand to newcomers and they are able to have their questions answered promptly. New committee members are always needed.
Comité de Bienvenida
El Comité de Bienvenida ayuda a los nuevos feligreses a acoplarse con la Comunidad de Santa Maria. Cada nuevo feligres registrado recibe una carta de bienvenida por correo, seguida por una llamada teléfonica de un miembro del comité. Es una maravillosa y cálida forma de extender la mano a los recién llegados y de responder las preguntas que ellos puedan tener en una forma rápida. Siempre necesitamos miembros para éste comité.

La Colecta de Productos no Perecederos es para el Kendall County Food Pantry y se llevá a cabo el primer fin de semana de cada mes. Favor de colocar su donación en la canasta que esta a la entrada de la iglesia. Esta canasta siempre esta allí por si usted desea hacer donaciones en cualquier día fuera de las fechas de colección.
 God`s love does not distinguish between the infant in the mother`s womb or the child or the youth or the adult or the older person. in each one God see His image and likeness. Human life is a manifestation of God and His glory.
