MOVING MASSES TO THE
​ROWLEY ACTIVITY CENTER


​Beginning May 17, 2021, we will be celebrating all Masses in the Rowley Activity Center (gym), while our Church lighting project is completed.  We hope to be back in the church by the weekend of July 3 / 4. 

Due to capacity limitations and the seating configuration in the RAC, our attendance capacity for the two Saturday evening Masses and the 9:00 AM Mass on Sunday will be limited to 125 worshipers/Mass; the limits for the 7:30 AM and 11:00 AM Masses on Sunday will be limited to 150 worshipers/Mass.

All who wish to attend Mass will be REQUIRED to sign-up.  
Click the button below to sign up!
  • NOTE: Each individual person wishing to attend Mass must be registered.  For example, a wife and husband would be two separate registrations.
  • If you (or if you know someone) are not able to register online due to a lack of computer / internet access, please call the parish at 847-358-6999.  Someone will get back to you and help you register, if spots are available.
  • Pre-Mass registration needs to be done to allow for the current mandate which requires large gatherings to offer a system of contact tracing if someone gets sick. Attendance records will be destroyed every 14 days.
  • Seats will be sanitized before each Mass and social distancing will be observed at all times.

​Registration opens at 9:00 am on Thursday and closes at 12:00 pm on Saturday.
Over the past year, many routine events have changed. Preparing yourself for what to expect can ease the anticipation and confusion. We've created this guide to help you understand the changes to your usual Mass experience at St. Thomas of Villanova.  All our efforts have been driven by the desire to keep our church open for worship while protecting the physical health and well-being of all who enter our church.

Please, please be patient with the process.  Let's remember we are one body in Christ.
