Have you been thinking about becoming Catholic?
RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION FOR ADULTS
Each year thousands of adults choose to
become Catholics. They come from different backgrounds for different reasons:
• Some are already Christians from other traditions attract-
ed by the teaching of the Catholic Church and by the
example of individual Catholics they know.
• Some are from another faith or no faith at all who have
heard about Jesus, His claim to forgive sin and His
promise of eternal life.
• Some are non-Catholics who have been coming regularly to Mass for years with their Catholic relatives. They
wish now to become full members of the Church.
• Some have had no previous contact with the Church at
all but have this inner calling to discover the truth about
the most important questions of life.
• The program is also for Catholics who missed out on the
sacraments as children.
If any of the above situations applies to you, then the
RCIA program is for you!
Please contact John Valenti, Pastoral Associate at 217-3476240.
Attention . . . In the event of a death, accident or other
life emergencies, while offices are closed, please contact
(217) 703-1042.

The Oblates of Jesus the Priest will be with us at all the
masses on August 6th & 7th at St. Anthony and August 13th
& 14th at Sacred Heart, to ask your prayers and support for
their mission.
The Oblates were founded in 1936 with the Mission of
serving seminarians and priests. Their central belief is that
holy priests will help the people of God be holy! They offer their lives, prayer and work for the sanctification of
priests.
The Oblate Sisters live in twenty different convents around
the world, thirteen of which are located in Mexico. We also
have houses in Rome, Ecuador, and the United States.
Children's Liturgy
Children’s Liturgy will be starting again in September. We
are in need of some volunteer teachers and helpers. Teachers need to be adults and helpers can be Jr. High or older. If
we get enough volunteers, it would require only one Sunday
a month or less, during 9:15 mass. Please contact Teri Calhoon @ 217-342-2249 if you are interested in either being a
teacher or helper.
To the thirty-five (35) volunteer Ministers of Holy Communion and all those involved in the
Eucharistic Ministry who bring Jesus to our parish family, a heart-felt “Thank You!” We
serve over one-hundred (100) parishioners residing in twelve (12) assisted living and nursing
home facilities. We also bring the Eucharist to eighteen (18) home-bound parishioners
weekly. This ministry includes outreach providing love and care through the Eucharist to
the sick at home, hospital, nursing and retirement communities. I am grateful to our pastor
Father Chris and to Sister Jane for everything they have done to make this such a vital ministry. If you are interested in this
ministry or would like to request a visit, please contact John Valenti, Pastoral Associate at 217-347-6240. Thanks!

Pro-Life Corner
Thoughts from Pope Francis…
It is important to insist that legislation help facilitate the
adoption process, above all in the case of unwanted
children, in order to prevent their abortion or abandonment.
Those who accept the challenge of adopting and accepting
someone unconditionally and gratuitously become channels
of God’s love. For he says, “Even if your mother forgets
you, I will not forget you” (Is 49:15).
(Pope Francis’ apostolic exhortation on love in the family
titled “The Joy of Love”, released 4/8/16)
