Today, Christmas Day, Saint Hyacinth Basilica, a spiritual oasis for our Polish-American neighbors, celebrates 100 years since their first service in their current church. Referred to by some as a “Polish Cathedral”, the parish hall houses one of Chicago’s 3 restorative justice courts, a noble embodiment of our common values of mercy and being our brother’s and sister’s keeper.
Thank you St. Hyacinth Basilica for being a pillar and beacon of hope in the community
Will you help me congratulate them on their 100th anniversary?
