I write today to share with you some news. Effective February 1st, 2022, I will be leaving St. Ben’s. I will take on a new role as Director of Music Ministry at St. Clement Parish in Lincoln Park.

Our annual community Thanksgiving Dinner is back! For decades our parish has provided a place for people to gather and share a meal, especially if they don’t have anywhere else to go. This event is made possible through countless donations of food and time by our community. Consider supporting the event by making a donation of food or by volunteering (or both).

MASKS ARE REQUIRED FOR ALL GUESTS AND VOLUNTEERS.
