Hello, friends. I have some difficult news to share with you all. This week I found out that I will be leaving St. Benedict in June. I will be assigned the new director of the St. John Paul II Newman Center at UIC. It will be hard to leave the place I've called home for the last 4 years, and to say goodbye to so many people I have been privileged to know and minister to in my time here. Please pray for me, for Fr. Ken, and for the parish during this time of transition, and know of my prayers for you. Queridos amigos, es my deber compartirles las noticias difíciles que me toca irme de San Benito en junio. Esta semana me di cuenta de que voy a ser asignado como director del Newman Center en la Universidad de Illinois de Chicago (UIC). Va a ser muy difícil salir de un lugar que he llamado mi hogar por los últimos 4 años, y despedirme a tantas personas que he tenido el privilegio de servir. Por favor, pidan por me, por Padre Ken, y por la parroquia durante este tiempo de cambio, y sepan que voy a rezar por ustedes. Dios los bendiga!

You're invited to our first Open House of the year at St. Benedict School on Thursday, December 14 from 6-8pm.

Don't miss out on this opportunity, and come and get to know the only Catholic School in Blue Island!
