What St. Alphonsus Liguori does

Saints Thomas Becket and Alphonsus Liguori Parish is a Roman Catholic parish formed on July 1, 2023, from the merger of St. Alphonsus Liguori Church (founded 1956) and St. Thomas Becket Church (founded 1968) under Cardinal Blase Cupich's Renew My Church initiative in the Archdiocese of Chicago. The parish operates two worship locations at 411 North Wheeling Road in Prospect Heights, Illinois, and 1321 N. Burning Bush Lane in Mt. Prospect, Illinois, offering daily and weekend Mass in both English and Polish, with Polish-language Masses serving a culturally significant local population.

The parish's core offerings comprise the seven Catholic sacraments (Baptism, Eucharist, Confirmation, Reconciliation, Anointing of the Sick, Matrimony, Holy Orders), faith formation programs spanning PreK-8 religious education, OCIA/RCIA, Bible study, SPRED, the Rutkiewicz Polish School, Summer Youth Camps (Totus Tuus), and the affiliated St. Alphonsus Liguori Catholic School (Pre-School through 8th grade). Outreach ministries include a food pantry, Loving Lunches community meal program, and PADS (Public Action to Deliver Shelter) homeless shelter hosting. Supporting infrastructure includes a Music Ministry (choir, cantors, organist), Youth Group, Young Adults ministry (YAM-NW), Men's Club, Women's Guild, and American Heritage Girls.

The technology stack is deliberately lightweight and outsourced: the parish website is hosted on the eCatholic platform, online giving is processed via Pushpay, email communications use Constant Contact, and digital content subscriptions include the FORMED Catholic platform and Word on Fire reflections. Revenue is generated through recurring tithes and weekly offertory collections, one-time Mass intention donations (suggested at $10 per intention), Archdiocesan stewardship campaigns (Annual Catholic Appeal, Generation to Generation, Heinz Endowment Fund), facility rentals of the gymnasium, dining hall, kitchen, and meeting rooms, and school tuition. The parish does not publicly disclose revenue and operates as a nonprofit religious organization under the Archdiocese of Chicago's authority. Leadership comprises Pastor Fr. Greg Wojcik (ordained 2008, originally from Poland), Associate Pastors Fr. Slawomir Kurc and Fr. Steven Dombrowski, five deacons, a Business Manager, Office Manager, Director of Evangelization & Ministry, Director of Lifelong Faith Formation, Communications Assistant, Choir Director, and Organist.
