We will be able to celebrate Mass in person, St. Kateri Tekakwitha Feast Day along with the Feast Day of St. Benedict of Nusia at St. Benedict’s Mass on Sunday July 12, 2020 at 10:00am. We are pleased to announce that we will celebrate these feasts by opening our doors for public Mass for the first time since the beginning of the pandemic. We understand many are still not comfortable and will provide a live stream on “St. Kateri Center of Chicago” Facebook page.
