Marytown's beloved Br. Martin Schmitz, OFM Conv. has moved to the St. Joseph's Home run by the Little Sisters of the Poor in Palatine, IL where his health needs can be better met.

Our two new classical confessionals are scheduled to be installed the week of February 5! Then on Sunday, February 11, we will bless the confessionals after the 11:00 AM Healing & Anointing Masse. Hand-crafted from quarter sawn oak with walnut inlay, these spectacular confessionals truly give glory to Our Lord and the life-giving Sacrament of Reconciliation. We sincerely thank all who donated to our Chapel Preservation Fund and designated confessional donations, which helped make this possible.
