The Church requires of all Religious to observe an annual retreat, to follow the invitation of Christ to His apostles to “come away and rest a while” (Mark 6:31).
The Canons Regular of Saint John Cantius will be away from August 2nd - 6th. We ask you to please pray for us on this retreat as we will pray for you.
We are only able to offer the following Masses at St. Peters this week:
August 2: 6:15 AM - Latin* | 8:00 AM - English
August 6: 7:00 PM - Latin*
Mass intentions that are scheduled will be offered privately by the Canons on Retreat. There will be no Adoration on Thursday, August 5th or First Friday, August 6th.
The Church will be open for private prayer each day from 8:30 AM - 4:15 PM. Please note that the Church will be locked promptly at 4:30 PM.
Should an emergency arise while the Canons are away, and you are in need of a priest, please call the Parish Office at (815) 385-5496. The Parish Office is open Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:30 AM - 4:30 PM. For after hours emergencies, please contact (815) 451-8350.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the Parish Office directly at
