Celebrating 100 years, 1925-2025, God Bless St Henry Catholic Church !
People in the thousands came to witness Jesus healing the sick, the lame, the deaf and the blind.
He gave that power to his disciples and sent them out to spread the Good News and bring hope to the world.
Was that it? Or is the healing power of Jesus alive today in The Church?
Dr Mary Healy, professor of Theology at Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit is an inspiring lecturer and author.
Hearing her account of the power Jesus bestowed on the disciples makes us believe she is giving a first-hand account of his miracles.
Dr Healy a member of the Pontifical Biblical Commission
spoke to us on the mission of Healing in The Church historically and today and our role in supernatural healing.
She reminded us that as followers of Jesus Christ we are called to spread the good news and heal the sick. If you are interested in exploring the charism of Healing in our Diocese
please call the parish office 618-233-2423 for more information.

Fast and pray initiative is regarding a state-wide effort to fast
and pray every Friday for the leadership in the State of Illinois.
This initiative was started by a group of concerned Lay Catholics
from the Joliet diocese following the reversal of Roe v Wade
and the impact it could have on this state. It is our intention
to unite in prayer and fasting
every Friday throughout the State.
Parishes from all six dioceses have
been or will be contacted to help spread the word.
The Belleville Messenger posted an article in the September 29th issue regarding the importance of this initiative.
Thank you Father Ken!

“Virgin of Guadalupe, Patroness of unborn children, we implore your intercession for
every child at risk of abortion. … Guide our public officials to defend each and every
human life through just laws. Inspire us all to bring our faith into public life, to speak for
those who have no voice. We ask this in the name of your Son, Jesus Christ, who is
Love and Mercy itself. Amen.”

“Virgen de Guadalupe, patrona de los niños en el vientre materno, te imploramos tu
intercesión por cada niño en peligro de ser abortado. ... Guía a nuestros funcionarios
públicos a defender cada vida humana mediante leyes justas. Inspíranos a todos a
traer nuestra fe a la vida pública, para hablar por aquellos que no tienen voz. Te lo
pedimos en el nombre de tu Hijo, Jesucristo, quién es Amor y Piedad. Amén”.

On February 12, 2023, our parish began The Parish Rosary Program. Each week parishioners are requested to either email to the church secretary sthenryc@peaknet.net or drop in the collection basket a slip of paper with the number of rosaries they prayed the previous week. Weekly, year-to-date, and grand totals will be printed in the church bulletin.
There are many reasons to pray the rosary: reparation for sin, world peace, political civility, the end of abortion, souls in purgatory, the intentions of the Holy Father, vocations, lukewarm and fallen away Catholics, marriages, and those in the most need of God’s mercy. But perhaps the best reason of all is by praying the rosary as Blessed Mother has requested, is that she will bring us closer to Jesus and in the process we will become more Christ like.
All adults and children are asked to participate. If you are unsure of how to pray the Rosary, there are instructions in the back of church..
11,764 rosaries recorded!
