THERE ARE TWO "NEW TO..." APPROACHES FEATURED BELOW

1. The first approach is text taken directly from the original SGSBM websites.

2. The second is an alternative that focuses more on providing an intial welcome and "walk around" rather than going straight to registration.

Welcome Home to Ss. Genevieve and Stanislaus Bishop & Martyr Parish!

We are happy that you and your family have chosen to register. Our greatest hope is that you find here what you and your family need to grow in faith at every age, stage, and circumstance of life.

​All parishioners are encouraged to register. This enables us to get in touch with you regarding news/activities at the Parish. Once you have registered, please advise the Parish Office of any change of address or phone number. Following registration, new parishioners will typically receive parish contribution envelopes within 8 weeks. Whether you have an envelope or not, you may make your contribution by check so that the Parish Office can track your contributions.

Because of many difficulties and constraints some may be reluctant to take on such a commitment. However, the Parish Council has listed some benefits of being a Parishioner and they are the following.

  1. Registration is proof of membership in the Church, for anyone who is asking for his or her membership to be verified.
  2. Preference in choice of dates for your Church celebrations.
  3. Regular mail of envelopes for Sunday offerings with name, address, and a number assigned to each registered parishioner printed on each envelope. Your offerings are recorded by the staff for proof of donations and income tax purposes.
  4. In general, persons involved in lay ministries should all be registered in the Parish.
  5. Parishioners who live outside our Parish boundaries have a special need of registration due to documentary needs that may arise and may require Parish verification, for example: someone who wants to be certified as a sponsor for baptism and whose address is in another parish.

Registration is easy. We invite you to form an ongoing relationship with the Ss. Genevieve and Stanislaus Bishop & Martyr Community by completing a registration form either by calling our Parish Office at 773-237-3011 or stopping by.

Moving?
We strive to keep our parishioner records current. If you have moved, or are planning to move, please call the Parish Office at 773-237-3011 to provide your new phone number, address, or other information.
