The Legion of Mary group at Saints Peter and Paul Parish is called Our Lady of Sorrows. The Legion of Mary is one of the largest lay apostolic organizations, with over three million active members throughout the world.

In addition to devotional prayers to the Blessed Virgin Mary, we do Spiritual and Corporal works of Mercy, such as visiting nursing homes and parish homes. We also foster Catholic ideals and devotions in our parish with the Pilgrim Virgin Visitation Home Program. Our members share a fellowship with others who share their ministry, a sound prayer life, and a devotion to Our Lady, who invariably leads all souls to Jesus Christ. We meet every Tuesday morning at 10:30am at SSPP in the Ministry Center (Room 227). For more information please contact: Bernadette McKeon 267-885-9571 and Paulette Shea 630-718-2127

The Council is the visionary body of the parish whose charge is to move the parish forward in the mission and goals of the parish as set forth in its Mission Statement. As the primary consultative organization of the parish, the Council advises the Pastor in overseeing and coordinating the activity of all parish organizations through designated commissions. By prayerfully evaluating and advising the organizations and the commissions with respect to their policies, procedures and programs, the Council seeks to relate the work of these bodies to the mission of the parish as a whole.
