The St. Christina Website has been updated!
Technology is an asset for Catholic Parishes and St. Christina has decided to partner with our Bulletin printer, LPi, to revamp our website!
First and foremost, we'd like to thank our long-time Parish Webmaster, Hugo Lugo.

Order of the Christian Initiation into the Church
In celebrating this month of Our Lady's final journey to God in her glorious Assumption, let us ask her motherly intercession to draw souls to the Sacred Heart of her Son.
The Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA, formerly RCIA) is a journey too - of conversion to God and what He intends for us. OCIA is the process by which person who were never baptized, or were baptized in another Christian tradition, become members of the Church, a people on pilgrimage to our Heavenly Father.
If you or someone you know is interested in exploring the Catholic faith and coming into communion with the Church, our next session of OCIA begins September 21, 2026. Please contact Pamela Waldrom at pwaldrom@archchicago.org for more information and to register.

St. Christina Starts a New Tradition!
Bambinelli Sunday is a tradition in Italy for families to bring their Infant Jesus figure from their home Nativity scene to Mass on the Third Sunday of Advent. Fr. Ryan has brought this tradition all the way to Mt. Greenwood! The Sunday Masses of December 13 & 14, 2025 were an absolute blast!
No need to fret if you happened to miss the 2025 event, we'll bring it back in 2026. We hope to see you there!
