Teaching Mass

As lay members of the Holy Name Cathedral parish community, the Faith Formation Commission assists our Pastor in helping our fellow parishioners grow in discipleship by deepening our Catholic faith. We do this by helping all who walk through our Cathedral doors understand God’s word in Sacred Scripture; gain a better understanding of the fundamentals of our faith; of the Mass; of the Sacraments. We help spread the Word of God, and the Good news in collaboration with the Director of Faith Formation.Examples of our activities are:Weekly Bible Study held every Wednesday in the rectory – We review the 1st reading (usually from the Old Testament) and the Gospel read from the Lectionary the previous Sunday. We give a historical overview and context of both readings then open discussion on what the verses mean to us and how to apply them to our daily lives.Sponsor evenings of evangelization by experts in various areas of theology.Offer education on Papal teaching and newly issued encyclicals.Partner with the other parish commissions to further discipleship.

Whether you are a cradle Catholic able to give a detailed history of the Mass or you are curious about what and why we Catholics do things at Mass, this is the opportunity to learn more!
This is the second in a series of teaching Masses where a priest will celebrate Mass with us in the chapel, explaining and providing information as we go through the Mass. While the Mass is a weekday Mass, and thus usally only 30 minutes or so, due to the explanations this Mass is likely to be about an hour and a half long.
As we want to make sure people are able to hear and see what is going on, we are limiting space at each teaching Mass to those who register in advance. We will have additional teaching Masses scheduled, so if the event fills, please keep an eye out for the next opportunity. We also encourage those who attended the previous teaching Mass to let those who have yet to attend register so as to allow as many parishioners as possible to enjoy this opportunity.
This Mass will be celebrated by Fr. Greg Sakowicz.
Should you have any quesitons contact Jennifer Delvaux at jdelvaux@holynamecathedral.org or (312) 787-8040.
Please note, each person wishing to attend needs to register seperately. We will have a list of all attendees at check in.
