Dedicate a Hymnal Program

St. Elizabeth Seton Parish is undertaking a meaningful project to purchase hymnals for our church! Our goal is to start the 2026 Lenten Season with our new hymnals. We invite you to participate in this special project by sponsoring a hymnal in your own name, in the memory of a departed loved one or in honor of an important event (such as birth, anniversary or Holy Day). A personalized bookplate label will be placed inside the cover of a new hardbound hymnal, creating a lasting memorial for all who use it. Both the donor’s name and the name of the person being memorialized/honored can be included. The suggested donation is $30 per book which will cover the cost of the hymnal and memorial label. One person, family or event per book. (Presentation cards are available upon request).

To order:

-       Go to https://www.wesharegiving.org/App/Form/71c81902-122f-4c5d-b91b-94933a9f275f to make your donation and fill out the dedication information.

-       Fill out an order form available at the Welcome Desk. Return it to the Parish Office or place the form with your donation in the collection basket.

Please contact Gloria Kapsa with any questions - 630-416-3325 or businessmanager@sescatholic.org.

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!
