We are very excited to welcome St. Gianna Molla’s daughter and our dear friend, Dr. Gianna Emanuela Molla, to St. Patrick Parish on Wednesday, May 22. She will give a personalized talk and meet with those in attendance. In addition, Bishop Hicks will give the St. Gianna Shrine a special blessing as it recently became an official shrine of the Diocese of Joliet! This is a great blessing, we hope you will be able to attend!
