St. Anthony Parish is participating in the Hoopeston city-wide garage sale on June 6–7. Donations can be dropped off at the Parish Hall starting Thursday, May 21 from noon to 4:00 p.m. After that, donations can be dropped off on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from noon to 4:00 p.m.

St. Anthony Parish is launching a new Evangelization Committee, and we are looking for volunteers who want to help. To volunteer, contact Andrew Lane at 765-505-2558.

There will be a meeting on May 17 at 2:00 p.m. in the Parish Hall with Fr. Ignatius, Brandon Smith, and Tom Kasallis, who are our two representatives in the future consolidation meetings. This meeting is open to all parishioners to address concerns they may have about the consolidation.

Our  Faith Formation end of the year celebration will be Wednesday, May 20. We’ll celebrate with Jeopardy games and an ice cream party!  Thank you to all our dedicated teachers!  A special thanks to Linda Lugo, Jane Sweeney and Mary Timmons who will be passing the torch to new teachers next year!  If you are interested in helping out with  our Faith Formation program, please contact Linda Sheppard.

All parishioners should have received a letter in the mail about the Vermilion County parish merger. If you did not, it is likely that you are not officially registered in our parish data system. We encourage you to register, as this may help in future decisions about Mass schedules at St. Anthony Parish as the merger moves forward.

Congratulations to our 2026 graduates:

• Sarahanne Baldwin

• Shay Layden

• Jackie Resendez

• Silas Yates

We wish you many blessings in your new journey.

June 14 will be the Parish Picnic
