Our Sociable Six will return for the months of April, May and June 2024. Three couples will be grouped together and then arrange among themselves to share a simple brunch, lunch or dinner at alternate homes each month. Participants will enjoy getting to know their fellow parishioners in an informal setting. It is a great way for newcomers to get acquainted with members of our parish family. To sign up call Nancy or Howard Emery 815 861-0820 or email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. Please provide your name, address, phone number and email address. Final sign up for this session is March 27. You will receive a letter/email with the three couples in your group the first week of April.

Are you following some practices during Lent just because you have always done so? Dr. Brant Pitro has a discussion on Formed called "The Three Tempta-tions" that will help you get to the heart of the mean-ing of Lent. He discusses Adam and Eve's fall in Gene-sis as well as the temptation of Jesus on the Mount. Your tools against sin, prayer, fasting and almsgiving will have new meaning on your journey through Lent.

Next week our second collection provides food to the hungry, support to displaced refuges and Christ's love and mercy to vulnerable people here and abroad. More information at www.usccb.org/catholic-relief.
