St. Katharine Drexel Parish

On January 1, 2001, Bishop

George J. Lucas issued a decree

uniting two parishes, Sacred Heart

and St. Patrick, under the patronage of St.

Katharine Drexel.

Today, St. Katharine Drexel Parish is the most

liturgically diverse parish in the Diocese of

Springfield in Illinois. We offer the Ordinary

Form of the Mass in both English and Spanish.

St. Katharine Drexel is also Springfield's "Home

of the Latin Mass," otherwise known as the

Extraordinary Form of the Mass.

Also included in the daily liturgical schedule

at St. Katharine Drexel Parish is the Liturgy of the

Hours, led by the Canons Regular of St. Cantius.

The priests and brothers of the Canons

Regular of St. John Cantius serve in

parishes and help Catholics to rediscover

a profound sense of the Sacred through

solemn liturgies, devotions, sacred art

and music, as well as instruction in the

heritage of the Church, catechetics and

Catholic culture.

Please come and join us in "Restoring the Sacred."
