Faith Promise Dinner
Just a reminder, the Faith Promise Dinner is on Sunday, November 13th this year. To better accommodate schedules we moved to the new day. Please mark the date and start to think about who you would like to invite. Fr. Burke Masters, chaplain for the (dare we say it, 2016 World Series Champion) Chicago Cubs, will be our guest speaker. If you would be interested in helping on the Faith Promise Dinner committee please drop a note to missions@dioceseofjoliet.org. We need your help to make this the most successful Faith Promise Dinner ever.
