LET US INTRODUCE YOU TO OUR NEW PRIEST...
Fr. Tomasz Pietrzak, SChr
Assistant Pastor, St. Hedwig Church
Rev. Tomasz Pietrzak SChr, was born in Poznań, Poland. He was ordained to the priesthood in 2006. Until 2016 he worked in Poland (Płoty, Mórkowo, Stargard, Goleniów), then he moved to the North American Province of the Society of Christ, and spent the last four years at the
Polish Parish of Divine Mercy (Parafia PW. Milosierdzia Bozego) in Lombard, Illinois.
May God bless Father Tomasz. Please keep Father in your prayers.

WELCOME FATHER TOMASZ!
OUR CHURCH AND BATHROOMS
ARE DISINFECTED AFTER EACH WEEKEND MASS!
Following each Mass, we wipe down the pews, doors and door handles and clean the bathrooms.
DIVINE MERCY
At three o'clock, implore My mercy, especially for sinners; and, if only for a brief moment, immerse yourself in My Passion, particularly in My abandonment at the moment of agony. This is the hour of great mercy. In this hour, I will refuse nothing to the soul that makes a request of Me in virtue of
My Passion (St. Faustina Diary, 1320).
Jesus, I trust in you! Jezu, ufam Tobie! Jesús, en Ti confío!
