Giving to Old St. Pat's
As each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of God’s varied grace.” (1 Peter 4:10)
As Christian stewards, we’re asked to receive God’s gifts gratefully, cultivate them responsibly, share them lovingly in justice with others, and return them with increase to the Lord. Indeed, as disciples of Jesus, we are grateful for the gifts we have received and are eager to use them to show our love for God and for one another. (USCCB)
Over the past 18 months, you have been true stewards—collaborators and cooperators in continuing the redemptive work of Jesus.
Because of you and your generosity, we have welcomed people back into our pews while continuing to bring livestream mass to thousands each Sunday. Because of you we continue to build our faith community through sacramental preparation and celebration; through spiritual direction, faith formation, and education of our members and friends, both young and old. Because of you, our Pastoral Care and Ministry of Care continue to walk with the many, many people who are hurting right now due to illness, loneliness, and grief.
And because of you, we — the faith community of Old St. Pat’s— are sharing gifts lovingly in justice with St. Agatha Catholic Church; with our friends in North Lawndale including the North Lawndale Area Recreation Association, the New Covenant Community Development Corporation, Phoenix Hall/Empower to Succeed; with our outreach partners the Center for Career Transitions, Harmony, Hope and Healing and Unlocking Communities; in support of immigrant and refugee resettlement and relief; and in support of hurricane relief.
Thank you for giving yourselves to God and to one another in love.

God is generous with us, and we are called to be generous in return. Without the gifts of time, talent and treasure shared so generously by our Old St. Pat’s members, we simply would not be the vibrant, welcoming, radically inclusive, and justice-minded Catholic church community we are proud to be. By sharing our gifts with one another, we will ensure we thrive for generations to come.
