Welcome to the website of Holy Family Parish in Shorewood. Our parish is
known as a caring and faith filled community. We invite you to
experience the warmth and hospitality of our parish family. These are
exciting times for Holy Family with our new Church and as our area
undergoes an unprecedented spurt of growth. The blend of long-time
registered families (some of them founders) with the influx of new
members moving into our rapidly growing area offers a kaleidoscope of
opportunities for ministries, fellowship, and support.
Although Holy Family was established in 1959, having located from Joliet
to the Village of Shorewood in 1998, we have a new Church and one of the
newest elementary schools in the Diocese of Joliet. We have over 1200
registered families, our school enrollment (Pre-school thru Grade 8)
tops 320, along with another 550 students enrolled in our Religious
Education Program.
You are welcome to journey with us as we worship, share our common
faith, and reach out in service to our brothers and sisters in need. We
hope that your on-line visit will encourage you to visit us in person or
perhaps join our family. If a personal visit is not convenient, simply
call Ginger our parish secretary at (815) 725-6880 or click
here to register.
