Lenten Missions
Blessed Sacrament Parish will hold a three-day Lenten Mission with Father Richard Simon of the Archdiocese of Chicago on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday evenings March 8th through March 10th. The sessions, beginning at 7:00 p.m., will focus on why a loving God allows evil to exist; the Christian path through grace to salvation, providing participants a special opportunity to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation; and God's covenant promise in the Eucharist with the celebration of Mass. Please join us in this wonderful opportunity to reflect on God's immense love during this blessed Lenten season. For more information, call the parish rectory at 217-528-7521.

The Church of St. Jude in Rochester, IL is hosting an Isaiah Parish Mission - March 12-15 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. The Isaiah Parish Mission is four nights of prayer, scripture, music, and talks about faith. It is a time of spiritual renewal and openness to God's love, a time to reflect and pray. You will not only experience a deepening understanding and renewal of your own faith, but the Mission provides an opportunity for you to introduce your friends and family to dynamics of living, personal faith.
