Question of the Week For adults:  Who are the people living near you that you would find it most difficult to invite to a meal in your home? Or to invite to be a part of your life? For young adults: God asks us to do for others without hope or repayment. This past week, what did you do for someone else for which you won’t be repaid? Who are the people most in need of your generosity? For children:  Jesus tells us that we should treat everyone as a guest. Who do you tend to shun or not be nice to?

If you are admitted to a hospital and would like a visit from a Parish Minister of Care, please call our Parish Office. We carry on Christ’s mission by ministering to the spiritual needs of our people with prayers and comfort in times of sickness and suffering. If you or a member of your family would like to receive The Sacrament of the Eucharist in your home, please call. Andrea Ricard (847) 255-7452 Ext. 270

Our Military                                                          ...Names of Those Serving

It has been the policy of St. Al's to offer our parish community an opportunity to pray for those parish members and their relatives who are serving in the military.  The names of those serving our country are listed in the bulletin, and in some cases pictures are also on display in the Narthex.  In our efforts to keep the list current, we ask that you review the list and notify the rectory, 255-7452, of any changes.  We appreciate your assistance so that we may continue to honor and pray for those currently serving in the military. Many of our military have called and thanked us for our continued prayers.  They couldn’t have done it without the support of our parish and families.
