Time to Register for Our Family Faith Formation Program for 2025-2026

Please join us on a life giving journey! St. Elizabeth Seton supports and equips families on their journey to Heaven through our Family Faith Formation program. We strengthen the Domestic Church by developing personal friendships with Jesus through His Word, the Eucharist, our parish family and service to others. We meet weekly to celebrate Mass. We gather monthly to grow in our understanding of our faith and form friendships with other families. Daily our families share the faith at home. Please visit the parish website for our registration materials https://www.sesnaperville.org/general-information or call Jacqueline Skelly at 630-416-1992 if you have any questions. Sign up TODAY!

Annual Fall Clothing/Small Household Items Drive!!

As summer winds down and cooler Fall weather just around the corner, it’s a good time reorganize and clean out those storage spaces.  As you are organizing and cleaning those closets, basements, crawl spaces, and garages, please keep St. Vincent de Paul in mind as we will have trucks right here at our parish to accept usable items you wish to donate and help the less fortunate. More specific information to follow! 

Email Phishing

PLEASE IGNORE any email messages from Father Scott Huggins or any of the deacons or staff from St. Elizabeth Seton that are asking for a favor, asking you to call a number or asking you to buy gift certificates.  These emails are scams! We have been notified that some of our parishioners are receiving these emails and want to assure all of you that no one from St. Elizabeth Seton is sending them directly. Please do not respond or call the number within the email.

Help Us Update Our Records!

If you have an adult child who no longer attends St. Elizabeth Seton because they are married or have moved from your home, please let us know so we can update your family records. It is important for us to maintain accurate membership counts for our census report to the Diocese. Please reply to this email, send an email to stelizabethseton@gmail.com or contact the Parish Office at 630-416-3325 to let us know!
 

Has Your Phone Number Changed?

Many households are disconnecting their landlines and using their cell phones as their primary form of contact. In order to keep our database and phone directory up to date, we need to know if your contact information has changed. If you no longer have a landline, do you want your cell phone number to be used as the primary contact? Do you want it published in the annual phone directory? Please contact the Parish Office at 630-416-3325 or email stelizabethseton@gmail.com to let us know!
