WARNING! Please note: there is an old scam going around where someone is posing as a pastor or an associate pastor, using the actual names, asking for money or gift cards via e-mail or text messages due to some "emergency." The request is typically sent from 'out of the area' phone number or a strange, easily-created email address.  This is a scam that is happening in many parishes. Those who publicize their names, phone numbers, or email addresses in parish bulletins are prompt to receive such scam requests. Please do not respond!

Please be vigilant in this matter.  Please be cautious about scammers!  Don’t be scammed yourself!  No one from Incarnation St. Terrence Parish will EVER ask for money or gift cards via text or email for any reason. And if you have doubts, call the parish directly and speak to your priest in person.

Please be assured that this scam has been reported to the proper authorities.

RENEW MY CHURCH ANNOUNCEMENT

RENEW MY CHURCH DECREE

NAME DECREE

 INCARNATION ST. TERRENCE PARISH IS HOME TO THE ALBERTINE SISTERS. 

It is not unusual for the Catholic Church to call a synod, a gathering of leaders. What is unique about the synod that Pope Francis called on October 9 & 10, 2021 is that this two-year synod is being called a “Synod on Synodality.” What does that mean? It means that Pope Francis is inviting the entire Church, the People of God, to reflect on its life and mission. We are each being called to reflect on and share what we experience as life-giving and disciple-forming in our parishes and communities.

Then, by sharing these experiences with each other, and by reflecting together on what the Holy Spirit is saying to the Church today, the Pope and Church leadership will be able to explore which processes are helping Her to live communion, to achieve widespread participation, and to open Herself more to living the mission of Christ.

So how do we join in the discussion?

1. Share your own voice about what you experience as Church here at Incarnation Parish.
Click here to participate. 

2. Connect to the Archdiocese of Chicago’s SYNOD website information. 

3. Connect to the USCCB’s SYNOD website information.

Be a part of the movement of the Holy Spirit in our Catholic Church! Experience the journey of Synodality!

The Disciple Maker Index (DMI) is an anonymous survey of parishioners that provides insights into the level of missionary discipleship in the parish in addition to the effectiveness of the Mass experience, preaching, and other aspects of the parish.

All parishioners in the Archdiocese of Chicago are invited to take part in the Disciple Maker Index survey.

Your participation will help provide your pastor and parish ministerial leaders with a better understanding of where to focus efforts and energies to help you grow in your faith and achieve the parish’s mission.

To take the DMI survey for your parish, find your parish name from the list below and click on the link next to it. If you have any questions about the survey, please contact your pastor or parish office.

The DMI survey will be open for responses from February 22-March 31.

Answering the call for the New Evangelization, all leaders and members of all ministries from Formation/Education, Spiritual Life, Parish Life and Human Concerns Commissions participated in the spiritual and evangelical renewal program “Alpha” that was adopted to the needs of Incarnation Parish and given our own name of “Journey to the Heart of the Faith.”  This faith formation in our Parish is ongoing.  We continue by offering programs to all parishioners throughout the year.  Please watch the video below:

We are happy to share with our parish community that the long-awaited statue of St. Michael the Archangel has been completed and is on display in our church. 
 
May St. Michael the Archangel and all Saints intercede for our parish, for our Archdiocese, and the whole Church.  May their example inspire us to imitate Jesus in our own life.

We also welcomed the first-class relic of St. Faustina Kowalska to our Parish! In the specially built reliquary in our Church, you can also find the following first-class relics:

- True Cross of our Lord Jesus
- St. John of the Cross
- St. Simon Stock
- St. Germaine
- St. Maria Goretti
- St. Brother Albert Chmielowski
- St. Vincent de Paul
- Bl. Francis Xavier Seelos

May God continue to bless our Incarnation Family, and may the Saints intercede for us.
