On Saturday evening, Carmel Catholic High School hosted the Bread of Life Eucharistic night of encounter for teens across the Archdiocese! In collaboration with the Franciscan Sisters of the Eucharist as well as the Archdiocese of Chicago, many religious, teens, parents, and parishioners came together in our St. Titus Brandsma Chapel for adoration, testimonials from Carmel students Brigid Burke and Kevin Murphy, the celebration of Mass, and an outdoor Eucharistic Procession concluding with Benediction. We are so grateful to those who joined us in prayer, those who have helped to make this possible, and especially Bishop Jeffrey Grob and Bishop Robert Lombardo (auxiliary bishops of Chicago) for blessing us with their presence and presiding at Mass.
