St. Mary Catholic Church

Chicago born Robert Francis Cardinal Prevost has been elected as the 267th Bishop of Rome. He has taken the name Leo XIV. Please join us in praying for our new pope, Pope Leo XIV, and for his papacy. O God, who in your providential design willed that your Church be built upon blessed Peter, whom you set over the other Apostles, look with favor, we pray, on Leo XIV, our Pope and grant that he, whom you have made peter’s successor, may be for your people a visible source and foundation of unity in faith and of communion. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever.

Parishioners of St. Mary and St. Therese: We pray for our seminarians daily. However, they also need our financial support in order to continue on their journey to the priesthood. The weekend of May 11th has been designated as Good Shepherd Sunday. The collection at all Masses that weekend will be used to financially support the young men studying to be priests. Please be generous! Your support is much an appreciated!
