About the Event
Join Catholic Church Tours and St. Gregory's Hall on a three-church winter afternoon tour commemorating the 800th anniversary of the death of St. Francis of Assisi.
From relics, to shrines, to beautiful stained glass, learn the story of St. Francis and his simple followers through the art of our historic churches. Witness the beauty of his life that has inspired the faith, (nativity scenes!) and the devotion of generations of Christians down to our present day. We will explore the three churches of the Mother of God Parish: St Gregory, St Thomas of Canterbury, and St Ita - each with it's own connection to the first friar.
Meet at St Thomas of Canterbury: 4827 N Kenmore Ave, Chicago, IL 60640
No transportation is provided for this tour. Church parking lots are available at each church.
