Enjoy these photos from the First, Second, and Third Scrutiny Masses at our parish! The Scrutinies are Rites (i.e. ceremonies) celebrated by “The Elect” who are adults preparing to be brought into the Church at Easter. Scrutinies are celebrated on the third, fourth, and fifth Sundays of Lent, and the Gospel readings are meant to teach the elect about the mystery of sin and fill them with the Spirit of Christ. As described by the Church, “These rites, should complete the conversion of the elect and deepen their resolve to hold fast to Christ and to carry out their decision to love God above all.” If someone you know wants to learn more about becoming Catholic, click here or call the parish office at 773-561-5343 for more information *Photos courtesy of parish volunteer Luana Lienhart
